Charles Leaf, the shithead local FOX reporter in New York, who is often seen espousing far-fetched conspiracy theories about what FOX News call “the Ground Zero mosque” has a new claim to fame: sexual assault of a minor. From NJ.com:

Award-winning Fox 5 news reporter Charles Leaf was being held in the Bergen County Jail on Thursday following his arrest on charges of aggravated sexual assault on a minor, according to the Bergen County Sheriff’s website.

Leaf, 41, also has been charged with sexual assault and endangering the welfare of children, according to the website. His bail was set at $250,000.

The alleged offenses occurred in Wyckoff on Tuesday, the website said.

Details of the arrest were not available early this morning. Wyckoff police would not comment.

Leaf, the married father of two children and an ex-Marine, joined the station in 2006 and is the station’s investigative and general-assignment reporter who has covered national stories, including the Bernard Madoff scandal and the proposed development of a mosque near the World Trade Center site, according to his résumé on myfoxny.com.

Who wants to make a $5 buck bet this story never gets even a mention on FOX News?
