Registered Sex Offender Arrested Attempting to meet 14-year-old boy, yet he was Still FREE TO GO under NJ’s Bail Reform
“Fourteen years ago, Harold L. Gordner II admitted sending child porn to someone he thought was a child living in New Hampshire. Turned out the teen was actually a cop and Gordner was sentenced to jail time in Pennsylvania and ordered to register as a sex offender. Last week, Gordner was allegedly at it again. He arrived at a New Jersey park where authorities say he planned to meet a 14-year-old boy for sex. Once again, he was greeted by the police. Gordner, 40, Highland Park, met the ‘boy’ — an undercover investigator with the New Jersey State Police — online a month ago. In addition to explicit chats, he sent links to pornographic websites and sent photos of himself masturbating, according to an announcement from the state Attorney General’s Office. He allegedly asked the teen several times if he could send a car to his house so that the teen could come to Gordner’s home for sex. They settled on the meeting at John F. Kennedy Park in Sayreville last Friday. Gordner is charged [with] second-degree attempted luring and a third-degree charge of providing obscene materials to a minor. Gordner’s criminal record of sex offenses is significant and touches several states.”
