PHILADELPHIA (KYW Newsradio) — A Bucks County man already in jail for sexual assault charges is now accused of two more assaults of a coworker and a 12-year-old girl.
Hellertown resident Edward Eisenhard, 38, was charged on October 1 with assaulting a 19-year-old woman who he managed at a Five Below in Hilltown Township.
In the process of investigating that incident, the Bucks County District Attorney’s office says they learned Eisenhard also strangled and assaulted a 38-year-old coworker in September at the Halloween attraction Valley of Fear in Southampton County. Prosecutors say Eisenhard was also a supervisor there.
District Attorney Joe Khan says Eisenhard also indecently assaulted a 12-year-old girl who he knew by a connection to her family.
“There are real monsters in this world and the world we send our little ones out into. There are people who will do them harm,” Khan said. “There are people who prey on children, women and others who are vulnerable in order to satisfy their own sick and twisted desires."
Khan said the evidence in the case was “overwhelming.”
“We had the incredible work of the Hilltown Township police working with our office to secure a recorded admission over the phone with the defendant admitting to his conduct,” he said.
The D.A. said he planned to ask the judge to deny bail, even as they continued to explore the possibility of additional victims.
