Besaw
A Shelton man was charged Sunday with sexually assaulting a 12-year-old girl.
In a prepared statement, Detective Christopher Nugent said 38-year-old Adam Besaw was charged Sunday (June 4) with first-degree sexual assault, two counts of second-degree sexual assault, and four counts of risk of injury to a minor.
“The arrest stems from a complaint taken from a family friend of a juvenile victim who stated she was sexually assaulted by Besaw when she was 12 years old,” Nugent said. “The juvenile victim stated that Besaw bribed her with purchasing gifts and providing her with money dating back to 2014.”
Nugent said Besaw was held on $250,000 bond and was scheduled to be arraigned Monday at Superior Court in Derby.
