Theodore Sypnier
100-year-old N.Y. child molester back in jail
BUFFALO, N.Y. – A 100-year-old pedophile is been jailed again after failing to comply with terms of his parole, a newspaper reported Tuesday. It’s the second time that Theodore A. Sypnier, who has a more than 60-year history of sexually molesting children, has been declared in violation of parole for his conviction involving attacks on two sisters in the late 1990s, the Buffalo News reported on its Web site.
New York’s oldest registered sex offender had moved out of a Buffalo halfway house for released inmates and into a place of his own in December, after completing his latest term in state prison for molesting little girls.
Kids called him ‘Grandpa’
Being grandfatherly was how the 5-foot-5, 150-pound Sypnier found his victims, authorities say. After his most recent arrest at age 90 on charges of raping and sodomizing a 4-year-old girl and her 7-year-old sister, his neighbors in the suburb of Tonawanda recalled what appeared to be a kindly Sypnier offering rides to adults, handing out money to children so they could buy candy, and baby-sitting. The victimized sisters called him “Grandpa,” their mother said at the time, adding that it “was a total shock” when police showed her sexually explicit pictures of her girls found in Sypnier’s apartment.
