Au Pair Ildiko Varga, 25, On The Run And Wanted ...
Contributed by Sermon Central on Dec 16, 2001 (message contributor)
Au pair Ildiko Varga, 25, on the run and wanted for trashing an employer’s home and mistreating the toddler in a New York City suburb, was finally caught when she stopped a police officer on the street to show him the article the New York Post had written about the crime and to ask him if he thought she had a good case for a slander lawsuit. And Rikers Island (N.Y.) corrections officer Anthony Lopez apparently stepped over the line when he ejected his wife from the family car during a fight on the way home from a Labor Day party; furious, she called the police and told them about Anthony’s computer, which she happened to know was loaded with child pornography, and he was arrested.
