Man molested teen he met on MySpace

Middletown (AP) - Newly released court documents say a Connecticut man charged last week with sexually assaulting a 14-year-old boy met the teenager on the MySpace social networking Web site.

Twenty-six-year-old Jacob Bonilla is charged with nine counts of second-degree sexual assault and nine counts of risk of injury to a minor. He has not entered a plea and returns to court Aug. 24.

Court records say Bonilla and the teen first communicated on MySpace on July 1, 2008, six days before the first of several in-person meetings.

There is no public phone listing for Bonilla, who now lives in Meriden. It's not clear if he has a lawyer.

Middletown police say Bonilla worked for the state child welfare agency, but state officials say they have no record of him ever working there.
