Man pleads not guilty in child molestation case
A not guilty plea was entered by a Sylmar man charged with molesting
a young girl.
Jhonny Carias, 22, entered the plea Thursday during an appearance
in Burbank Superior Court.
He is scheduled to appear in court again Jan. 18.
Carias was arrested Dec. 1 by Glendale Police after he was caught
prowling outside the window of a teenage girl. Investigators then
pieced together that Carias was a suspect in an August incident of
molesting a 12-year-old girl in Burbank, officers said.
Carias remains in the Los Angeles County Jail on $1.1-million
bond.
