Bronx
District Attorney Darcel D. Clark today announced that a Bronx man has been
sentenced to eight years in prison for criminal sex acts involving a 13-year-old boy, and will
register as a sex offender.
District Attorney Clark said, “The defendant committed heinous crimes against a child,
a jury convicted him and now will serve time in prison and register as a sex offender. We hope
the victim can now move on with his life knowing this predator is behind bars.”
District Attorney Clark said the defendant, Edward Gordon, 56, of 1451 Washington
Avenue, was sentenced today by Bronx Supreme Court Justice Efrain Alvarado to eight years
in prison, followed by ten years of post-release supervision. Gordon will have to register as a
sex offender. He was convicted by a jury on February 10, 2017, of three counts of second degree
Criminal Sexual Act, and Endangering the Welfare of a Child.
According to trial testimony, on February 25, 2014, Gordon engaged in oral sexual
conduct and anal sexual conduct with the child in Gordon’s apartment.
