The Monmouth County Prosecutor’s office has charged three suburban New Jersey men they say tied up a woman they met in a bar and “repeatedly” sexually assaulted her.
Andrew Gallucci, Richard Gathy, and Ronald Hondo, all 24, allegedly met the victim at a Manalapan bar on April 2.
Later that night, they brought her back to Gallucci’s house in upscale Marlboro, “where they allegedly restrained her against her will in a bedroom and repeatedly sexually assaulted her,” authorities added.
All three men were taken into custody on April 8 and detained in the Monmouth County Correctional Institution, the New York Post reported.
“This was a disturbingly coordinated and predatory attack,” acting county prosecutor Lori Linskey said. “We commend the courage of the victim in coming forward to report what happened to her, and we look forward to bringing those responsible to justice.”
The men face up to 20 years if convicted on aggravated sexual assault charges, up to 10 years on sexual assault charges, and up to five years on criminal restraint charges.
They are also subject to parole for life and would have to register under Megan’s Law as sex offenders.
