Uncle Ties Up Teen To Perform Oral Sex After Raping Her On Florida Vacation

Police

A teenager recently filed a lawsuit against her uncle after he allegedly raped her repeatedly over three years.

The teen — who goes by the initials J.G. on court papers — sued Steven Mezynieski on Thursday, February 2, for sexually abusing her from 2012 to 2014, New York Daily News reports.

Mezynieski, 44, is accused of raping his niece and tying her up so he could perform non-consensual oral sex on her.

In a lawsuit filed by the victim at the Suffolk County Supreme Court this week, she claimed her uncle sexually assaulted her for the first time when she was on vacation with him Punta Gorda in Florida.

At the time, she was only 15 years old. As time went by, her uncle continued the abuse.

A disturbing attack the teen mentioned in the lawsuit happened at one of his businesses, Driftwood Farms.

While he and his niece were there, the teenager claimed her uncle tied her up with a rope before performing oral sex on her without permission.

That's not where it ended, though.

The victimized niece also claimed Mezynieski raped her during the summer of 2014 when she was 18 years old, DailyMail.com reports.

Court documents claim the middle-aged man pushed his niece onto the bed and forced her to have nonconsensual sex with him.

After years of intrafamily abuse, Mezynieski was arrested in August and charged of sexual assault. Soon after, an investigation from the State Police Troop L Major Crimes Unit ensued.

However, the alleged rapist has pleaded non-guilty to the accusations set by his niece.

Edward Burke, Mezynieski's lawyer, confirmed the fact he is denying all charges. He said Mezynieski "adamantly denies the charges leveled against him."

On the other hand, his's niece's lawyer commented on Mezynieski's criminal actions and said,

This man is a sick human being.

If Mezynieski is convicted, he could face up to 25 years in prison.
