KINGSTON – A 23-year-old
Spring Glen man has been arrested and charged with rape for having sex
with a 14-year-old girl.
Detectives from the Ulster County Sheriff’s Office and Ulster County Family
and Child Advocacy Center charged Jonathan Santiago with two counts of
felony rape and a misdemeanor of endangering the welfare of a child.
In February detectives began investigating allegations that Santiago was
having sex with a girl under 15 years of age and the investigation concluded
that Santiago engaged a 14-year-old female in sexual intercourse on at
least two occasions.
On October 3 at about 10:30 a.m., Santiago was taken into custody at the
Trudy Farber Resnick building in the Village of Ellenville and transported
to the Ulster County Law Enforcement Center.
He was arraigned and remanded to the Ulster County Jail without bail and
he faces Ulster County probation violations.
