Coverup Alleged; Some on the BOL Knew in December; No Arrest Made Yet

A YouTube channel named OBL Global caught a former democratic staffer at the Westchester County Board of Legislators, Anand Singh, in an undercover, underage, sex sting in New Jersey.  

The video can be found at this link- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5kUNpG5HP4s&t=262s 

The incident was posted on YouTube April 11, but the incident occurred in Mid-December of 2022.  

The video is graphic in content, and in the comments and messages by Anand Singh, who thought that he was chatting with a 14-year old girl.  

Singh asks for the two to meet on Snapchat, to exchange photos and videos.  “I want to share something with you. I’m doing something and I want you to watch.”  

Shortly after this message exchange, Singh backs off, messaging, “Save my number and in a few years hit me up,” and “I am into it but I have to be the adult in this situation.”  

But shortly after Singh returns to graphic messages, including questions about the 14-year olds sexual history, and the type of sex he hopes to have with her. “are you on birth control–I could def hold you down lol.” 

Some of the chat messages have the name Hidley Anand, perhaps his Giglio name.  

Then the conversation turns to inviting another underage girl to join them. “Do any of your friends like older guys too? Maybe we can all get together and party.” 

Anand then makes the decision to meet this young girl at 1am that evening. He traveled 2.5 hours, and during the drive made 5 phone calls to the young girl decoy. The audio of these calls is in the YouTube video and graphic.  

Arriving at 1am at the designated location in Newark,  Anand is confronted by Ramy and OBL. He then gets back into his car and leaves.  

Two police officers show up and are filmed speaking with Ramy, the creator of OBL Global. The incident occurred in Newark and the New Police Department responded to the 911 call, but arrived after Singh had left.  

No charges have yet to be filed by the Newark PD.  

We spoke to Ramy to verify this story and he was shocked at the depravity of Singh’s messages and graphic sexual comments. “-I’ve caught over 300 of these guys, before millions of viewers, and this was one of the worst chat logs I have ever seen. There are more stuff and posts that I couldn’t post. And the fact that he was a government official is hearbreaking. He violated our trust, and even the decoy, who is in her 20’s was traumatized at what he was saying.  

Singh worked for former Yonkers City Council President Mike Khader, from 2019-2021. And until his recent termination, Singh worked for the Westchester County Board of Legislators, on the staff of both the Legislation and Economic Development committees 

To date, Singh has not been charged with a crime. The confrontation with OBL was not with law enforcement.  

There are more layers to this story.  

Yonkers City Councilmember Shanae Williams has called for an investigation into who, if anyone, knew about Singh’s behavior. Williams, who is challenging Johnson for County Legislator, accused Johnson of “concealment of staffer accused of sexual misconduct with a 14-year old minor,” in a press release.  

“County Board of Legislator’s staffer Anand Singh was not only caught on video targeting a 14-year-old minor for sex, but Majority Leader Johnson learned of his actions months ago and quietly tried to conceal it. For months while the District Attorney’s office investigated the staffer, Johnson allowed this staffer to continue to work rather than suspending him and making a public statement that they do not condone that sort of behavior. Johnson only fired his staffer on April 13th due to a youtuber named Ramy from OBL Nation exposing Anand Singh on camera.,” end of press release.  

Williams said, “It’s disturbing to know that Majority Leader Johnson allowed this staffer who engaged in horrific conduct to continue working as a legislative staffer in his office. It’s even more disturbing that Majority Leader Johnson who is also someone who works with minors in our public schools, chose to sweep this under the rug. If we cannot trust that he will do the right thing as Majority Leader and hold his staff accountable, how can anyone in the community trust his leadership in our government? Sexual predators that target our children have no place in our community and that should be the message, no exceptions!”  

Williams continues, “The people of Westchester deserve better leadership. Majority Leader Johnson is only concerned with one thing: political expediency. He does not have the people’s interest at heart. We deserve someone who will always be transparent with us, not someone who hides the truth about their staff for months and continue to allow them to collect taxpayer dollars while harming our children. We deserve leadership that will do the right thing for all families throughout Westchester. It is time for change and I am ready to bring that positive change!” 

Ramy said that he was not sure if Singh will be charged in Newark, because of the higher priorities of the police in Newark with violent crime.  He added that Singh was wise to leave and not stick around and confess what he did. “He committed felonies and by showing up he can be charged with child endangerment. He crossed state lines to have sex with a minor. And the duffle bag he showed up with was filled with sex toys. But he didn’t stay around and incriminate himself.”  

According to Ramy, he posted the video of Singh sometime in mid-december, but then took it down after the livestream. Many people watching the livestream recognized Singh and started notifying officials in Westchester four months ago.

Ramy said that County Legislator Colin Smith reached out to OBL for more information.  

Westchester County Police have reached out to OBL and Ramy shared the email from Detective James Roselli, requesting information.  

It will now be determined what crimes, if any, Singh made at his home in Westchester, or wherever he was messaging.  

Several questions to be answered:  

  • Who knew about this incident and when?  
  • Why did this not get reported for three months?  
  • Why did it take three months to fire Singh?  
  • What if any crimes were committed by not reporting this incident when they became aware of it? 

Maybe the powers that be thought that the incident would never get to the public, because Ramy and OBL didn’t post it to YouTube until April 11. Ramy explained that after the livestream in December, their YouTube channel was taken down and he had to create another channel. OBL was also involved in two other high profile cases, and the Singh incident got pushed back.  

Shortly after the Singh video was posted, Anand was fired from his county job. “I think they thought they got lucky when the video wasn’t posted right away. I know my viewers bombed them (county government) with emails and messages and Colin Smith reached out. They wanted to protect themselves from the heat.”  

Those close to Singh are confirming his deviant behavior. Much more on this story in the days to come.
