Social Worker Testimony

Social Worker Testimony

By WBNG News

A social worker's on the stand a 3rd day in a federal child sex abuse case in Binghamton.

49 year old Dean Sacco of New Jersey and 46 year old Linda O'Connor of Norwich face charges of sex trafficking and child pornography.

They're on trial in federal court in Binghamton.

A girl in Norwich claims the two forced her to have sex with Sacco in exchange for back rent.

A Chenango County Social Worker testified that it was not against the rules to communicate with a victim using MySpace.

She also testified that she believed everything she was told by the victim.

A family friend of O'Connor, Renee Lang, took the stand.

The victim had previously accused Lang's husband, George, of abusing her.

He is now deceased.

Lang testified that George did share adult pornography pictures with O'Connor over the internet.

She was not familiar with what the pictures showed.

The court will take a break for the weekend.

Testimony will resume Monday afternoon.
