Coventry man charged with second-degree child molestation

COVENTRY, R.I. (WLNE) — Attorney General Peter Neronha announced Wednesday that a Coventry man was charged with multiple counts of second-degree child molestation after his arrest back in April.

Court documents allege that 72-year-old Paul Dadamo sexually assaulted a victim, under the age of 14, multiple times on a day between November of 2016 and November of 2018.

The Coventry Police Department conducted the investigation.

Dadamo is scheduled for arraignment next week in Kent County Superior Court.
