The grand jury indicted Gregory H. Gilberti for second-degree sexual assault and fourth-degree criminal sexual contact. According to the indictment, Gilberti engaged in unlawful sexual contact with the victim from May through June 2015.
In the period from June to July of that same year, Gilberti allegedly committed forcible sexual assault on the same victim. The indictment lists both Wildwood Crest and Cape May as locations for the alleged criminal behavior.

The child endangerment charges stem from the fact that the victim was 15. The charge of enticement grew out of allegations that Hartman allegedly lured the child into a motor vehicle or isolated area.
The indictment lists the period for the offenses as almost a year from April 2016 to May 2017.
