From the
Bucks County Courier Times:
A nurse caring for a physically and mentally impaired 14-year-old Bucks County boy is accused of raping the teen in April, according to police.
Fred Magondu, 36, a Kenyan national living on King Arthur Road in Philadelphia, was taken into custody at a Philadelphia nursing home Thursday afternoon and later arraigned on charges of molesting a child who was in his care.
Police said they learned of the rape April 30. The boy receives 24-hour nursing care because he is mentally and physically impaired, unable to speak and blind, police said. According to court records, another individual care nurse, who has been caring for the boy for about nine years, discovered injuries to the boy when she attempted to change his diaper after he arrived at school April 30.
The boy was first examined at St. Mary Medical Center in Middletown and then transferred to The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. Doctors at both hospitals told police the boy was bleeding and bruised.
Police learned that Magondu, a Harleysville Pediatrics employee who has been caring for the boy for several months, was working at the victim's home from April 29 to 30. Magondu was allegedly alone with the boy from 5 a.m. to 7:40 a.m. before putting him on the bus to school, police said.
Investigators interviewed Magondu in early May at an unnamed Philadelphia nursing home where he works, according to court records. Magondu said that on April 30 the boy had been bleeding but the nurse believed it was a physical problem and had changed a set of soiled linens. Police collected a sample of Magondu's DNA and the boy's bed linens and sent them to
National Medical Services for analysis.
In a report to police June 6, the laboratory said the linens tested positive for semen that matched Magondu's DNA and that the possibility of it being from another unrelated person was 1 in 7 trillion, according to court records.
Magondu was arraigned on multiple charges of rape, involuntary deviate sexual intercourse, indecent assault, corruption of minors and unlawful contact with minors and sent to Bucks County prison on $250,000 bail.
