A 40-year-old Bristol Township man is currently facing multiple charges after being accused of drugging and sexually assaulting women he met on a dating site. Andrew Gallo was apprehended yesterday morning and faced a series of allegations, which include five counts of rape by causing impairment, six counts of possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance, along with counts of strangulation, selling liquor to minors, and corruption of minors, according to a press release from the Bucks County District Attorney's Office.
The victims' encounters with Gallo began on sugardaddymeet.com, where he was active under the username DREWSTER420, --and in one case, KAE. Magisterial District Judge Terrence Hughes ordered Gallo to be held at the Bucks County Correctional Facility, under an imposing $5 million bail set at 10 percent, as reported by the Bucks County DA's office. Gallo's arrest has sparked investigation and concern over the safety of online dating interactions and the means by which predators may exploit these platforms to carry out acts of violence and manipulation against unsuspecting individuals.
The details surrounding the counts are still emerging. Further developments in the case will likely continue as authorities comb through evidence and possibly uncover more victims. The DA's office encourages anyone with potential information to come forward, ensuring the investigation is as thorough as possible.
