A 13th suspect has been apprehended for the kidnapping and sexual assault of a teenager from Long Island Emmarae Gervasi, who was missing for a month. 40-year-old Anthony Wright from North Amityville, faces charges after the teen accused him of sexually abusing her at his home in Dec., reports the New York Post. 

Wright, who entered a not guilty plea, was assigned a bail of $500,000 in cash or a $1 million bond. If you’re unaware, Gervasi was abducted for 25 days, starting on Dec. 9 when Alton Harrell, 35, allegedly took her from her house, and she was moved to various homes and a motel by different suspects. All suspects have been charged with sexual assault and kidnapping. 

Wright’s reported crimes occurred over a week after Gervasi was taken aboard a boat by 64-year-old Francis Buckheit on Dec. 13. Two women have also been accused of trading Gervasi for drugs. 34-year-old Elizabeth Hunter faces charges for involving a child in a sexual performance.

Hunter and her alleged accomplice, 52-year-old Jacquelyn Comiskey are charged with promoting prostitution. 47-year-old Bunice Knight was apprehended for reportedly trading drugs with Comiskey for sex with Gervasi in his home on Jan. 2. While, Buckheit faces charges of “first-degree kidnapping and child sex trafficking.” On Jan. 2, Gervasi was rescued by her father after receiving an anonymous alert.
