Mayor of Oswego arrested

Another U.S. mayor has been arrested for soliciting sex with underage citizens. John Gosek, mayor of Oswego, New York, may be charged with rape in the third degree and criminal sexual act in the third degree because of his tendency to telephone underage females and entice and coerce them to have sex with him.

In early August, former Oswego City Parks Commissioner Robert P. Farrell was arrested for communicating indecently via email with 12- and 14-year-old girls.

If Gosek is found guilty, he faces a mandatory minimum sentence of five years in prison.
