MEDIA, Pa. (AP) - Authorities in suburban Philadelphia say they believe there may be more victims of a man convicted of child sex assault charges involving a dozen teenagers.
Twenty-year-old Hugh Taussig-Lux of Philadelphia pleaded no contest last month in Delaware County to a child rape charge and guilty to other charges including sexual assault. Prosecutors said his sentences total 13½ to 27 years in prison.
Prosecutors said he assaulted 12 victims ranging from ages 12 to 15 over an 18-month period beginning in summer 2014. Authorities said the assaults occurred during parties at Taussig-Lux’s Media apartment, where he provided drugs and alcohol to young boys and girls.
Authorities told reporters at a news conference that they believe there could be additional victims and are asking anyone with information to come forward.
