Khieng Heng - Repeat Sex Offender

A registered sex offender was charged with fondling a 15-year-old relative while she slept in his Des Plaines home, police said Wednesday.

Khieng Heng, 54, of the 2100 block of Fox Lane was charged with three counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse. His bail was set at $1 million during a hearing Wednesday in the Skokie branch of Cook County Circuit Court.

Heng was charged Tuesday after the teen and her family reported the alleged abuse, which occurred July 1, said Des Plaines Police Cmdr.
