Monis is not guilty of child abuse lawsuits | Local news

A man who is accused of having sexually attacked children, including the alleged forced victim to bother another child, did not guilty on Monday in the New Mexico 5th District Court in Roswell.

Electronic court files show that lawyer Blake Dugger had entered the plea on behalf of his client Paul Monis, 41.

Monis is charged with the first degree of a child under the age of 13 for seven charges for criminal sexual penetration, two cases of criminal sexual penetration to the first degree of a child under the age of 13, great assault and intellectual fear. He also joined the non -guilty legal form, counted every criminal sexual contact with a minor in the second degree of a child under the age of 13, which led to death or physical damage and a witness bribe.

Dugger did not answer calls that were looking for a comment on Wednesday before the press time.

District judge Thomas Lilley planned a legal proceedings in the case on September 16.

In a criminal complaint submitted in the CHAVES County Magistrat Court claimed that Monis bothered and sexually attacked two children between 2020 and 2022 who lived in Roswell several times.

Monis was charged after the police from Roswell had learned from a representative with a children's aid authority in another state last month that a girl had reported that Monis had raped and molested her when she lived in Roswell, and at least once forced another child to rape her.

According to the complaint, the police learned that Monis attacked at least one other child as sexually than he lived in Roswell. The child had said that Monis touched him and raped him, watched pornography and forced him to bother the other victim.

When the child refused to do sexual acts, the criminal complaint said that Moni's violence would threaten him.

The complaint describes an episode in which the child rejected Monis' demand to sexually work with another child with whom the victim was associated. Monis allegedly replied by stinging the child into the right calf with a kitchen knife. The victim then met the demands of Monis.

Monis supposedly threatened the child he had stabbed later and warned him that he would kill him if he told someone what had happened, what had happened.

The investigators then contacted Monis and his current woman on January 16, each contested.

According to the complaint, Monis' wife said that similar charges were raised against Monis when he lived in Indiana and he “beat her”.

Monis also claimed that he had not bothered that the allegations were lying and that he would submit a lawsuit against the police for harassment because “he had already exceeded the indictment,” the complaint said.

The complaint stated that the Carlsbad police also received reports on sexual abuse in 2022, which were committed by Monis against children. Although the police questioned Monis, the prosecutors could not advance with a case against him due to a lack of information.

At the end of the last month, Lilley made an application from the public prosecutor to keep Monis in a pre -judicial detention after the prosecutors had argued that Monis was a risk of fluff and a danger to the total population.
