Man Charged with Sexual Assaults of Minors

MORRIS COUNTY — Morris County Prosecutor Fredric M. Knapp, Chief of Investigations John Speirs of the Morris County Prosecutor’s Office, Chief Robert Treiber of the Florham Park Police Department, Chief Stanley J. Hansen of the East Hanover Police Department and Chief Mark D. Roddy of the Hanover Township Police Department announce the arrest of Colin Bolger, 19, of Florham Park, on numerous charges of Sexual Assault and Endangering the Welfare of a Child, related to allegations involving two underage females.

Colin Bolger has been charged in four separate complaints from conduct alleged to have occurred in three different municipalities.  Each complaint charges him with one count of Sexual Assault in violation of N.J.S.A. 2C:14-2c(4), a crime of the second degree, and one count of Endangering the Welfare of a Child in violation of N.J.S.A. 2C:24-4a(1), a crime of the third degree.

In late June 2016, the mother of a 15 year old female reported to the East Hanover Police Department that her daughter had been sexually assaulted by Mr. Bolger when she 14 years old.  During the course of the investigation, law enforcement determined that various acts of sexual penetration had allegedly been committed upon the female in both Florham Park and East Hanover between September 2015 and April 2016.

Subsequent investigation revealed that a separate 14 year old female had also allegedly been sexually assaulted by Mr. Bolger when she was 13 years old in both Florham Park and Hanover Township between September 2015 and April 2016.

Bail was set by the Honorable Catherine I. Enright, J.S.C. at $50,000 no 10%, cash bond or property, with a Nicole’s Law Restraining Order as to each victim.

Prosecutor Knapp would like to thank the Florham Park Police Department, specifically, Detective/Sergeant Scott Bartell, the East Hanover Police Department, specifically Detective Frank Franco, the Hanover Township Police Department and the Morris County Prosecutor’s Office Sex Crimes/Child Endangerment Unit, specifically Detective/Supervisor Marshall Wang.

Anyone with information related to Colin Bolger and/or these allegations is asked to contact Detective Marshall Wang of the Sex Crimes/Child Endangerment Unit of the Morris County Prosecutor’s Office at (973) 285-6200, Detective Scott Bartell of the Florham Park Police Department at (973) 377-5441 or Detective Frank Franco of the East Hanover Police Department at (973) 428-3053.

Editors Note: A criminal complaint is merely an accusation. Despite this accusation, the defendant is presumed innocent until he or she is proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
