Man boasted of perverted plans for kids, prosecutor says

Messages about perverted plans for abusing children were popping up in emails and texts to strangers, so investigators quickly swooped in and arrested John LaForgia of 216 Westervelt Place Apt. B in Lodi.

They found handcuffs and a key during a search of his home, said Bergen County Prosecutor John L. Molinelli.

Molinelli said LaForgia, 25, "was using the Internet and his cellular telephone to transmit e-mails, instant messages and text messages about an impending sexual and physical assault of a child. Those messages were transmitted to random people that he did not know and to others that he met while in internet chat rooms."

LaForgia, who has no children of his own, apparently spent no time with no youngsters, the prosecutor said.

Molinelli cited help from police Lodi, in particular, and also from Maywood and Fort Lee in tracking down La Forgia.

LaForgia remains free on bail pending an arraignment scheduled for tomorrow morning at Superior Court in Hackensack.
