Sex Offender Spits Blood At Victim At Sentencing Hearing


Story out of Newark, New Jersey:

Calling him “every parent’s worst nightmare,” a federal judge on Monday sentenced an online predator to life in prison for coercing two young girls from West Milford to engage in sex acts and then threatening to destroy their lives.

Midway through a nearly four-hour hearing in Newark, Clifford W. Wares, 43, of Warwick, N.Y., suddenly lunged at one of the victims, spitting a mouthful of blood as she walked past him after giving a heart-wrenching victim’s impact statement.

Three U.S. marshals, positioned behind Wares, pounced on the shackled defendant and wrestled him to the floor. Within moments they had subdued him and placed a netted hood over his head.

Wares’ attorney, Thomas Ambrosio, said his client apparently bit the inside of his mouth and then spit blood as the teenager was passing between the defense and prosecution tables. Wares had staged a similar cheek-biting outburst prior to his May trial, which he subsequently elected to watch via a video feed to his cell because of fears that he could not control himself. Cont.
