Molest suspect back in custody

A suspected local child molester has been arrested after allegedly committing lewd acts on a 13-year-old child before fleeing the city to elude police custody. On June 25, Hanford Police officers received a report of a child being molested in the 100 block of West Elm Street. The owner of the property, 32-year-old Jacob Entelisano, fled the scene before officers could contact him.

It is alleged that the suspect molested the unnamed victim over the last two years.

Entelisano was reportedly hiding in Redding when officers caught up with him on Friday, transporting him back to Hanford to be booked into the Kings County Jail.

He is being held on suspicion of lewd and lascivious acts upon a child under 14 years of age, engaging in three or more acts of substantial sexual conduct with a child under 14 years of age and sexual penetration of another person under 14 years of age and who is more than 10 years younger than the suspect.

The suspect is being held in lieu of $300,000 bail.

The reporter can be reached at 583-2425.

" When I lived in an apartment on Beverly Street in Lemoore in 2001, there were two single men who told single mothers who could not afford childcare to send their children to their apartments after school and they would watch them until the mothers got home from work. Two separate men who attacked children and probably did not know about each other. All the children were raped: boys and girls who were threatened if they told their mothers. There are a lot of single mothers who cannot afford daycare and need to team together so that one is watching the children while the other is working. There are a lot of child molesters in Kings County. Parents and children need to understand the danger. A girlfriend lets her children play in their back yard, but they have to have Mom or Dad with them if they go out the front door. She knows how catastrophic a child rape is since her sister was raped as a child and never recovered emotionally and would not have children of her own as a consequence. "

The world ends with me

I’ve often been accused of a crime called “exaggeration.” At which point, I usually respond with, “No, sir, you are clearly mistaken.

No detours in the game plan

What kind of road trip doesn’t have some hick ups.
