Prosecutor’s Office has announced a man from Deal will spend the rest of his
life as a registered sex offender under parole supervision after admitting to
having sexual contact with a child at various times over the course of about a
decade, starting about 25 years ago.
According to authorities, Hal Sitt, 86, was sentenced late last month. He will also
be made to serve five years of probation, as well as pay slightly over $134,000
in restitution to the victim.
Authorities
say an investigation
revealed at various times between about 1997 and 2008, while the victim was
under the age of 18, Sitt touched her inappropriately and had her do the same
to him at locations, including at a park in Ocean Township and his home in Deal.
Sitt was arrested in April
2021 and earlier this year, pleaded guilty to a charge of third-degree aggravated criminal sexual contact.
The plea agreement was reached
only following discussions with the victim.
