TRENT YOUNG, 41, a New York City police officer, pled guilty yesterday afternoon before United States District Judge KENNETH M. KARAS in federal court in White Plains, New York, to transporting three different minors across state lines for purposes of engaging in illegal sexual activity.
According to the Indictment to which YOUNG pled guilty and statements made in filings and Court proceedings:
Around April 2003, YOUNG drove a 14-year-old minor from her home in Brooklyn, New York, to his home in Middletown, traveling through New Jersey, and engaged in sexual intercourse with her. In spring 2006, YOUNG, who operated a martial arts studio in his home in Middletown, New York, opened Iron Tiger Martial Arts, a martial arts studio in West Milford, New Jersey. Around October or November 2006, Young brought a 14-year-old minor from Middletown to Iron Tiger and engaged in sexual intercourse with her. Around November or December 2006, Young brought a second minor, who was then 16 years old, to Iron Tiger and engaged in sexual intercourse with her as well.
In his plea of guilty to Counts One, Five and Six of the Indictment (covering each victim), YOUNG admitted that he transported each of the three minors across state lines for the purpose of engaging in sexual activity and that, after transporting the minors across state lines, he engaged in sexual intercourse with them. He also admitted that he exercised supervisory control over each of the three minors.
YOUNG faces a maximum term of 30 years imprisonment and a mandatory minimum term of imprisonment of five years on Count Six of the Indictment, and a maximum sentence of life imprisonment and a mandatory minimum term of imprisonment of 10 years on each of the other two counts, which took place after Congress imposed more stringent penalties for this offense. Sentencing is scheduled for January 15, 2010, before Judge KARAS. YOUNG has been detained without bail since his arrest in January 2008.
He’ll really be popular in prison. A cop and a child sex criminal.
Always remember the old saying: 15 will get you 20.
Sombody is gonna get his ears pinned back.
Are you kidding? He will be the party favor being passed around.
He will have a bunghole about the size of a watermelon.
