Dylan Wright, of the 100 block of Cadman Drive, was arrested Thursday by Detectives Cindy Herberger and Mark Pitirri of the Special Victims Unit.
Wright is charged with predatory sexual assault, a Class-A felony; first-degree criminal sexual assault, a Class-B felony; first-degree sexual abuse, a Class-D felony; and endangering the welfare of a child, a Class-A misdemeanor.
"Our detectives first interviewed the child last Friday, and the investigation has been ongoing ever since," said Detective Lt. Joseph A. LaCorte, head of the special unit.
Wright was to be arraigned in Amherst Town Court.

I doubt someone from Amherst would do this....Clarence....yes...but not Amherst.
In countries that have the death penalty for such acts, have so much a lower number of perverted acts. This baby is scared for life, while the perpetrator will do a couple years in prison, at most, and be released to do it again and again. With any luck at all, he will not make it out of prison!!
