Guillermo Torres- Acevedo, 23, of Batavia, was arraigned in Genesee County Court on Monday morning after allegedly taking a 14-year-old Byron girl to Pennsylvania on November 29, 2018, causing an Amber Alert and manhunt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Police say Torres-Acevedo allegedly abducted the teen that morning near Byron-Bergen high school. Torres-Acevedo and the 14 year old girl were found later that afternoon by police in a Mansfield, Pennsylvania Walmart parking lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He is charged with custodial interference 1st, criminal contempt 2nd and endangering the welfare of a child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In April, The US Attorney’s Office charged Torres-Acevedo with transporting a minor across state lines for sexual activity. That charge carries a mandatory minimum penalty of 10 years in prison, a maximum of life, and $250,000 fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since November 29, 2018 he has been held without bail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tom Burns, Torres-Acevedo’s attorney, says his client is an American Citizen who has no prior criminal history who would be living locally. He requested that bail be set at $5,000 cash or $10,000 bond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Judge Charles Zambito agreed to that bail amount due to a bail evaluation which shows Torres-Acevedo with 20 points. The evaluation was knocked down to 9 points due to the federal charge of transporting a minor across state lines for sexual activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An order of protection was issued on behalf of the victim and is in effect for one year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oral arguments are scheduled for August 15, 1:30p.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
