The Hudson County Prosecutor’s Special Victims Unit arrested Christian Felipe at his residence last week, and if found guilty solely of the sexual assault charge, he faces a mandatory five to ten years in state prison.
They also charged Felipe with criminal sexual contact and child endangerment, according to Hudson County Prosecutor Esther Suarez.
“The investigation found the defendant met the victim at a West New York park prior to the assault,” according to the prosecution.
Felipe stayed at the Hudson County Correctional Center in Kearny.
