A nanny who worked for families across Southern California was convicted Tuesday of sexually assaulting 16 young boys in his care and showing another boy child pornography, prosecutors said.
Matthew Antonio Zakrzewski was arrested in May 2019 after a couple told Laguna Beach police he touched their son inappropriately. More alleged victims were identified, and Zakrzewski was ultimately charged with 34 felonies, including lewd and lascivious acts with a minor.
Zakrzewski’s victims ranged from 2 to 12 years old, investigators said. A jury convicted the 34-year-old on all counts, according to the Orange County District Attorney’s Office.
“These young boys were forced to endure unimaginable terror as a result of the ultimate betrayal by a babysitter,” said District Attorney Todd Spitzer said in a statement.
Zakrzewski, of Costa Mesa, had billed himself on his website as a “manny,” who not only watched over children, but also provided a fun “buddy” experience.
Sentencing was scheduled for Nov. 17.
Was THIS one a drag queen?
(And I’m disturbed at how often this comment has been appropriate.)
What a nightmare scenario for those families.
Have fun in prison, dickhead
similar shit happened to me, I decided to get back by wearing recording devices and had a nightmare coffee and chat w him, police arrested him the next morning, pussy hung himself in his cell the day he was being released on bail. good chance this asshole might do something similar. ama I don’t mind.
The “buddy” experience should have been a huge red flag
Not necessarily. Some kids without a father may benefit from a functional male role model they could trust to play or tell stories.
Of course, this piece of shit tainted a good idea.
Dismemberment is applicable in this situation.
