Aaron Wittevrongel, 20, of Bayville, entered a guilty plea yesterday before Judge Wendel E. Daniels to a charge of second degree sexual assault, Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office announced today.
The case stems from a March 29, 2014 incident, where the female victim reported to Berkeley Township Police that Wittevrongel, 19, years of age at the time and known to the victim, committed an act of sexual contact upon the victim.
The victim was less than thirteen years old at the time.
Wittevrongel was arrested on March 30, 2014 at his Bayville home.
His bail was set at $150,000 (no 10%), with a no contact with the victim provision. He was released on bail.
Wittevrongel’s sentencing is pending an Avenel review.
The second degree sexual assault charge carries a possible five to ten year term in New Jersey State Prison.
