Retired DJ Dave Herman arrested in Virgin Islands,
accused of trying to arrange sexual abuse encounter with minor By
Jason Grant/The Star-Ledger October 24, 2013
Federal authorities have
charged Dave Herman — who ruled the morning 1970s rock airwaves as a renowned
disc jockey at New York's WNEW-FM — with trying to transport a 7-year-old Bergen
County girl to the Virgin Islands to sexually abuse her.
Herman, now 77,
who lives in both Airmont, N.Y. and St. Croix, was arrested earlier today by
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents at the St. Croix airport, said
U.S. Attorney Paul Fishman in a statement.
Herman is scheduled to appear
tomorrow before U.S. Magistrate Judge George W. Cannon in St. Croix federal
court, authoritities said.
Federal authorities, citing documents filed in
the case, allege that starting in November 2012, Herman initiated a series of
chats on a Web site with a female undercover officer from the Bergen County
Prosecutor’s Office.
According to authorities, Herman thought he was
communicating with a 36-year-old single mother -- she referred to herself as
"Kris" -- who had a 6-year-old daughter she called "Lexi."
During the
following months, Herman then had multiple phone and online discussions with the
undercover officer, during which he indicated that he wanted to engage in sexual
activity with the officer’s fictitious daughter "Lexi."
