Natalie Guglielmo, 51, of Marple, waived a hearing, Aug. 15,  before Magisterial District Judge Dave Lang.on the charges of theft by unlawful taking, theft by deception, criminal use of a communication facility and credit cards. The charges stem from an incident June 4 at Customers Bank in Newtown Square, Pa.

According to the affidavit, Delaware County CID Detective Michele Deery was contacted by a Customer Bank representative when the 86-year old victim came into the bank and requested a check for $8,900 to be made out to Guglielmo. The bank teller recognized Guglielmo’s name from a fraud arrest in 2001. The bank’s investigation revealed numerous checks made out to Guglielmo from the victim’s account during the last year.

The victim said that she was giving Guglielmo money for medical treatments for her husband,including CAT scans which he never had.

The investigation led to the victim’s two other bank accounts where checks were made out and cashed by Guglielmo.

Guglielmo allegedly scammed the victim out of $117,178.31.

A warrant was obtained for Guglielmo’s bank records and detectives found she used the money to make purchases at Coach, HSN, DSW, Victoria’s Secret, Northface, Giant, Nordstrom, PECO, QVC Comcast, Sears and to pay court fines. There were no transactions for any medical bills.

Guglielmo is currently on probation in Delaware County for related fraud charges from a 2001 arrest. She is scheduled for a Sept. 12 arraignment in Common Pleas Court.

A Bryn Mawr banker waived a hearing on charges relating to sex with minors, Aug. 15, after testimony began, during a hearing before Magisterial District Judge Dave Lang.

Andrew Milligan, 35, is facing 29 counts of possession of child pornography, 29 counts of criminal use of communication facility, one count of corruption of minors, and photographing sexual acts. In exchange for the waiver the charge of contact with a minor relating to sexual offences was withdrawn.

The charges stem from an investigation initiated be Delaware County CID Detectives Lisa Carroll and Ed Pisani, Aug. 23, 2012 when they were contacted by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.

According to the affidavit, Carroll and Pisani acted on a tip that Milligan was posing as a 15-year-old girl who was asking other teens to send him sexually explicit pictures. He used the name Stacy Markson.

Pisani searched Facebook and located a Stacy Markson. Stacy’s profile picture appeared to match the images on Milligan’s computer. Stacy was also located on Google, My Space, Motherless.com, Followgram, sexyrepost.com and imgur.com.

Stacy’s birthday on her Facebook account was 10-5-97. Milligan’s birthdate is 10-5-77.
Pisani obtained a court order to identify the Comcast account and learned the account was in Milligan’s wife’s name.

Carroll obtained a search warrant and CID Detective Dave Peifer confiscated an iPad, a MacBook Pro, a Nikon camera, one flash drive, and seven CD/DVD’s from Milligan’s residence.

Twenty-seven videos and three pictures of apparent child pornography were found. Twenty-nine videos depicted children under 18.

Milligan is scheduled for a Sept. 12 arraignment in Common Pleas Court.
