Man, 63, charged for abusing 14-year-old boy and gifting him a $50 bill



Thursday, July 10, 2025 - A sick man has been arrested for allegedly r@ping a 14-year-old boy and gifting him a $50 bill after the disturbing encounter as authorities fear he may have additional child victims.

Virgilio Taveras, 63, was charged with second-degree r@pe and other s£x offenses after he allegedly lured the teen into his car and s£xually assaulted him near the intersection of 175th Street and Jamaica Avenue in Jamaica, Queens around 1 p.m. on July 1, according to the criminal complaint.

The child told police he was walking along 171st Street when Taveras pulled up slowly in a silver sedan, honked several times, and offered him a job in construction if he got into the car, court documents revealed.

Once the boy got in, the alleged predator allegedly sped off, asked about his dating life, and told the youngster he was attractive before abruptly pulling over and assaulting him.

The accused creep then slipped a $50 bill into the minor’s pocket as he exited the car, according to the complaint.

Taveras was arrested two days later by members of the Special Victims Squad, police said.

He was arraigned Friday in Queens Criminal Court for second-degree r@pe, luring a child, forcible touching, endangering the welfare of a child, and third-degree s£xual abuse.

Bail was set at $20,000 cash and $60,000 bond.
