Freehold, NJ – A Marlboro Township man has been convicted of sexually and physically abusing his daughter over a period of more than six years, Monmouth County Prosecutor Raymond S. Santiago announced Wednesday.

Following a trial before Monmouth County Superior Court Judge Christie Bevacqua, Andrey V. Penkin, 51, was found guilty of two counts of first-degree aggravated sexual assault, one count of second-degree aggravated sexual assault and two counts of second-degree endangering the welfare of a child.

The investigation, conducted by the MCPO Special Victims Bureau and the Marlboro Township Police Department, revealed that the abuse began in 2016 when the family lived in Sayreville.

Penkin was arrested in April. During the trial, the state presented medical records, witness testimony and physical evidence, including the victim’s diary, convincing the jury to return a guilty verdict after 80 minutes of deliberation.
