11:07 am
younger siblings of the victim that i just mentioned in addition to charging him with other crimes against his original accuser. mr. kaplan was a friend and business associate of the children's parents as you probably remember. he took these children into his home. not far from where we stand here today. over time, he played on their trust and affection for him. he groomed them. to believe that he was a religious cult like figure to whom they should submit their will. he took advantage of his hold over these children to assault them in ways that are detailed in the charging document i believe you all have a copy. of that. while it wasn't easy at first for these young female victims to share this information with our investigators, they ultimately have come forward.
11:08 am
and they're to be commended if their bravery. the most courageous thing any of them i'm sure has hads to do. these allegations are unspeakable acts against children will be vigorously prosecuted by our office in the most serious extent that law allows. i've assigned kate koehler to prosecute this and spearhead the effort support ed by other investigator that is you see before you hear. mr. kaplan, who has been in custody since his arrest up until a couple of moments ago, was in prisoned on $1 million 10% bail. has been given an additional bail on these new charges of an additional $1 million cash. with another component of his bail being that he is to have absolutely no contact with any
11:09 am
of the six victims or the victim's mother or father. he has been arraigned by video conference. not on the premesis. he remains in prison. mr. kaplan has represented himself to these girls as a cult like figure at a prophet from god, but now, it is time for mr. kaplan to be held accountable under the laws of mankind and the commonwealth of pennsylvania. i have a slide to show you, which details all the charges and how they line up against mr. kaplan. i would ask detective if you want to run that. if you guys would allow the media to see this. i'll take questions at this time. >> these are all the girls in the same family, right? >> yes, they're all sisters. >> from the same family? zpl yes.
11:10 am
>> and the more charges on that. >> that's correct. a sister victim one and if you read in your probable cause affidavit, which accompanies the complaint, she was the subject of victim of original charges and since disclosed additional allegations of abuse that mr. kaplan perpetrated on her as is often the case as you know. these things tend to come out over time. >> the five other girls in the same family abuse snd. >> absolutely from age 8 up to age 18. if you look at the top, each one is headed with their -- >> you've been listening to the district attorney. he has delegated this case to assistance da, kate koehler. they're going of lee kaplan. they just announced five additional charges have been added to the original case of the 18-year-old.
