The Bergen County Prosecutor’s Office declared the arrest of Margarita Hernandez-Valladares, a 23-year-old Englewood resident, on charges of Attempted Sexual Assault, Criminal Restraint, and Criminal Sexual Contact. Law enforcement were able to apprehend HERNANDEZ-VALLADARES due to a joint effort made by Chief Robert Anzilotti (Bergen County Prosecutor’s Office) and Chief Lawrence Suffern (Englewood Police Department).

He appeared on November 10, 2017 at the Bergen County Court for an arraignment.
All persons are assumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
