Staten Island man arrested after child sex videos he made with girl, 4, found on phone: feds

A Staten Island man arrested on child sex exploitation charges gave a phone to a pal’s girlfriend apparently without realizing it still had video and photos he made with a 4-year-old girl, the feds allege.

Jon Consiglio, 39, was ordered locked up without bail after his arraignment Wednesday in Brooklyn Federal Court.

“The victim in this case, your honor, is a 4-year-old girl. Her mother is aware of it as of last night,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Jack Dennehy said in court Wednesday.

Consiglio gave one of his phones away on Nov. 25 of last year, and the woman he gave it to passed it along to her sister on Sunday because she didn’t need it anymore, according to a criminal complaint.

That same day, the sister found two videos and a photo of a little girl forced into sex acts with an adult man, the feds allege. One video lasted more than three minutes, the other more than four, and involved multiple horrific acts, according to the complaint.

She contacted authorities, and on Monday, the FBI interviewed Consiglio’s pal, the pal’s girlfriend and her sister to learn more.

Both Consiglio’s friend and the friend’s girlfriend recognized the young victim, and said the male voice in the video resembled Consiglio’s voice.

When the feds interviewed another woman with ties to Consiglio, she also recognized the girl and Consiglio’s voice, and gave the feds access to a video taken inside Consiglio’s home in Staten Island’s Woodrow neighborhood, according to the complaint.

The setting of the child sex videos matched Consiglio’s bedroom, according to the feds. The tattoos on the man’s hands in the sex videos also matched photos of Consiglio’s hands on social media, the complaint alleges.

Consiglio’s lawyer, Samuel Jacobson of the Federal Defenders, did not make a bail application at Wednesday’s hearing. Jacobson declined comment Wednesday night.

If convicted of enticing or coercing a minor into producing child sexual exploitation material, Consiglio could face a mandatory minimum 15 years behind bars and a maximum of 30 years.

Marathon hearings conclude in state case against Luigi Mangione for UnitedHealthcare CEO killing

Marathon proceedings in Luigi Mangione’s state homicide case came to a close Thursday, as Manhattan prosecutors and lawyers for the suspected killer of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson rested without calling any more witnesses. The parties won’t learn for some time which positions prevailed, with state Supreme Court Justice Gregory Carro asking each side to submit final written arguments and indicating he would rule on Mangione’s motions to suppress evidence central to the prosecution’s case by May 18. The hearings included 17 witnesses and centered on evidence recovered and statements Mangione made to Pennsylvania law enforcement surrounding his arrest five days after Thompson’s killing. Mangione was nabbed at a McDonald’s in the city of Altoona, more than 200 miles from the Hilton hotel in Midtown, outside which the CEO was shot dead Dec. 4, 2024. Notes allegedly found by police in Luigi Mangione's backpack after he was detained at a McDonald's in Altoona, Pennsylvani...

NYC mom who may die from Randalls Island beatdown spent 6 hours on ground unconscious

The Queens single mom clinging to life after being savagely beaten and robbed of her e-bike on Randalls Island was left unconscious on the ground for nearly six hours before she was discovered by a passerby the next morning, the Daily News has learned. Diana Agudelo was biking home from her job as a janitor at an East Harlem museum, taking her usual short cut through Randalls Island to get to her Astoria apartment, when she was attacked about 11:30 p.m. Friday. One or more assailants struck her multiple times in the head and face before apparently stealing her e-bike and belongings. A passerby didn’t spot her unconscious near the bike path until about 5:15 a.m. the next day as the sky began to lighten on the sparsely populated island, which is home to sports fields and institutions including shelters, a psychiatric hospital and an FDNY training facility. Agudelo made it through surgery Wednesday to relieve pressure on her brain but only has a 1% chance of ultimately surviving, ...
