Yonkers resident Miles McNeal was arrested by the Manhattan Child Abuse Squad on Feb. 1 and charged with several sex crimes related to his position as a part-time teacher in the New York City schools.

McNeal, 25, was charged with sex abuse, use of a child in a sexual performance, promoting an obscene sexual performance by a child, course of sexual conduct against a child, possessing an obscene sexual performance by a child, and acting in a manner injurious to a child.

McNeal is accused of the sex crimes and interactions with an 8-year old female student at the school. Media reports say that McNeal interacted with the girl at an afterschool program at a school on West 112th Steet in Manhattan.

According to the criminal complaint, McNeal abused the girl for 11 months by “repeatedly assaulting her,” “taking obscene pictures of her,” and “showing her pornographic images of other naked children.”

The NYPD has asked any parents of children who had any type of contact with McNeal to call the NYPD Sex Crimes Hotline at 1-212-267-RAPE (7273).

McNeal was charged in Manhattan Criminal Court and bail was set at $75,000 cash. He was remanded to Rikers Island until his Feb. 7 court date.

We feature this for Yonkers parents whose children may also have interactions with McNeal in Yonkers. We will attempt to find out his Yonkers address, so that families are aware.
