Barnet man accused of sexually assaulting girls ordered to stay in jail

Caledonia Superior Court Judge Justin P. Jiron has ordered a Barnet man accused of sexually assaulting girls as young as four years old to stay in jail. Carl Edward Sanborn, 52, has pleaded not guilty to engaging in sexual activity with five young girls under 16 from 1997 – 2014. Sanborn, who remains held without bail, had a hearing in November on his request to be released from pre-trial detention under a 24-hour curfew into the custody of his father, Maurice Sanborn, 76, at 2226 Maple Ridge Road in Newark. But on Tuesday, Judge Jiron denied Sanborn’s request.
