Texan Extradited to New York, Faces Sex Abuse Charges

A 26-year-old Texas man has been extradited to upstate New York to face charges for alleged sexual actions committed against a young girl a decade ago.

Christopher Wustrau was arrested last week in his hometown of San Antonio and transported by state police to New York on Wednesday. He was arraigned before Town of Beekman Court and sent to Dutchess County Jail on $100,000 cash bail or $200,000 bond.

Wustrau is charged with first-degree sexual conduct against a child. The charge was brought after a former resident of Beekman reported a sex offense that occurred approximately 10 years ago. An investigation revealed that Wustrau sexually abused the victim when she was between the ages of 7 and 9 years old.

It could not immediately be determined if Wustrau has an attorney.
