An Islip Terrace man faces 10 years in prison after pleading guilty this week to second-degree arson after authorities said he’d set fire to a Suffolk County bar because he’d been asked to leave the premises by staff members. The Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office said Paul Lucia, 60, entered the plea to charges of setting fire to Riley Fibbers Pub and Grill on Nov. 20 in East Islip.

NGS is proven technology used worldwide to diagnose disease, identify remains and exonerate the wrongfully convicted including those who spent decades in prison for crimes they didn’t commit. It helped advance the Gilgo case. New York must authorize its use in forensic labs.

Advanced DNA analysis has helped solve cold cases, ID remains & exonerate the wrongfully convicted. Without it, Gilgo Beach victims’ families would still be waiting for justice. I was honored to testify before the NYS Legislature alongside Missy Cann & Dr. Bruce Budowle.

A former Lindenhurst school custodian is expected to serve 17 years in prison after he pleaded guilty to filming himself while sexually abusing a child, Suffolk County prosecutors said. Brian Woehr, of Lindenhurst, pleaded guilty to two counts of use of a child in a sexual performance as a sexually motivated felony. He was initially charged with more than 100 child sex-related charges and possession of child pornography, prosecutors said. The Suffolk police digital forensics unit was notified that Woehr uploaded several child sexual abuse photos to a Google account, prosecutors said.

Guilty. A Honduran national was convicted at trial for sexually abusing his daughters. I hope the brave young victims find solace in knowing that the defendant will not be in a position to harm them or another child again. The defendant faces up to 46 years in prison.
