WILCOX MAN PLEADS GUILTY IN MCKEAN COUNTY TO HAVING SEXUAL CONTACT WITH JUVENILE
(McKEAN COUNTY, Pennsylvania: September 14, 2024): District Attorney Stephanie Vettenburg-Shaffer reports that the Wilcox man accused of having sexual contact with a 13-year-old girl in McKean County has pled guilty during a plea hearing at the McKean County Courthouse on September 13th. John HODGDON, of Wilcox, pled guilty to Involuntary Deviate Sexual Intercourse (victim under the age of 16); Aggravated Indecent Assault; and Sexual Abuse of Children (Child Pornography – 29 images).
HODGDON was accused of driving a 13-year-old girl from Wilcox into a wooded area in Wetmore Township, McKean County on October 23, 2023 and performing oral sex on her, having her perform oral sex on him, and engaging in sexual intercourse with her when she was 13 and he was 52 years old. While in the wooded area, HODGDON photographed the juvenile while she was nude. State Police would later find 29 photographs of the juvenile on his electronic device.
The District Attorney indicated that she was seeking the enhanced sentence available for the crime of Involuntary Deviate Sexual Intercourse on a victim under age 16. HODGDON was ordered to undergo an assessment with the Sexual Assessment Offender Board to determine if he meets the definition of a sexually violent predator under Pennsylvania law. The Board has 90 days to finish the assessment and, therefore, the sentencing was scheduled for January 10th. Trooper Anthony Tettis of the Pennsylvania State Police-Ridgway barracks investigated the case.

IN PENNSYLVANIA, IT’S ALMOST DEER SEASON
It’s probably safe to say that most people, given the chance to trade their cellphone for a landline, swap out their vehicle for a horse and buggy, or replace their washing machine with a bucket, a bar of rough homemade soap and a 100-yard walk to the nearest river, would opt to keep their modern conveniences.
Tools offering efficiency, ease and comfort are hard to forgo.
