Convicted Charge Molester Charged in Another CAse

An Easton man sentenced to state prison for molesting a girl has been arrested on charges he molested a girl between 1997 and 1999, beginning when she was 4, city police said.

Donald H. Muskett, 31, was charged Thursday with aggravated indecent assault and indecent assault. According to court papers, Muskett molested the girl at a residence in the 300 block of Seitz Avenue.

He was recommitted to Northampton County Prison prison on $50,000 bail by District Judge Sandra Zemgulis of Easton.

Last month, Muskett received four to eight years in prison for sexual assault, three to six years for aggravated indecent assault, and one to two years for indecent assault. The sentences will run consecutively, meaning Muskett will spend eight to 16 years in prison. Muskett was baby-sitting the girl he molested. He was arrested in 2005 after the girl reported the abuse.
