New York’s Bruce Neil Kresin Charged with Failure to Register As Sex Offender

The United States Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania announced today that Bruce Neil Kresin, age 51, of Binghamton, New York, was indicted by a federal grand jury for failing to register as a sex offender upon relocating to Pennsylvania.

According to United States Attorney Gerard M. Karam, the indictment alleges that from July 2024 and continuing to at least August 27, 2024, despite being required to register under the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act, upon relocating to Lackawanna County, PA, Kresin failed to register his address in Pennsylvania as required by SORNA.     

This matter was investigated by the United States Marshals Service (USMS). Assistant United States Attorney Jeffery St John is prosecuting the case.

This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse. 

Led by the United States Attorneys’ Offices and the Criminal Division’s Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section, Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state, and local resources to locate, apprehend, and prosecute individuals who sexually exploit children and to identify and rescue victims. 

The maximum penalty under federal law for this offence is 10 years of imprisonment, a term of supervised release following imprisonment, and a fine. The judge imposes a sentence following a finding of guilt after consideration of the applicable federal sentencing statutes and the Federal Sentencing Guidelines.

Indictments are only allegations. All persons charged are presumed to be innocent unless and until found guilty in court.
