SARCONE, PATRONE--NORTH SYRACUSE SEX OFFENDER CHARGED....

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools, our houses of worship--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

First Assistant United States Attorney John A. Sarcone III and Anthony Patrone, Acting Special Agent in Charge of the Buffalo Field Office of Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), made the announcement.
.......First Assistant U.S. Attorney John A. Sarcone said, “As alleged, this defendant’s conduct is utterly indefensible. What is particularly troubling is that despite a prior conviction, New York’s increasingly soft‑on‑crime approach resulted in a probationary sentence that failed to deter him from allegedly reoffending. My office, together with our partners at HSI, remains steadfast in our commitment to identifying, investigating, and prosecuting alleged child predators to the fullest extent of the law. Flandera now faces a mandatory minimum of 15 years in federal prison for his alleged actions and will answer for these allegations in federal court.” MORE AT Northern District of New York | North Syracuse Sex Offender Charged with Receiving Child Pornography | United States Department of Justice
