NEW YORK (PIX11) — A young woman says her life was shattered after she was nearly raped while sunbathing in Central Park two years ago.
A creep who tried to rape a Central Park sunbather was slapped with a 13-year prison sentence Tuesday as the resilient victim recalled how the attack tore her “from spaces in the city I used to love.”
D.A. Bragg said: “Not only did Anthony Rosa ignore repeated warnings of the dangers associated with fentanyl use around children, he harassed concerned ACS workers and fought against their protocols and precautions every step of the way. By doing so, his recklessness directly caused the death of his two-year-old son, Charlie. I thank my Office’s Child Abuse Bureau for its pursuit of justice for Charlie.”
