Illinois man picked up girls in Wisconsin, sexually abused one of them: sheriff
LAKE COUNTY, Ill. – An Illinois man is accused of sexually abusing a 13-year-old girl Saturday.
George Soriano, 25, of unincorporated Antioch, was charged with two counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse and one count of traveling to meet a minor.
At about 3:15 a.m. Saturday, sheriff’s deputies responded to a residence in the 40200 block of North Bonham Court for a 911 call.
The caller said that Soriano picked her and a friend up at their home in Wisconsin, and then drove the girls to his home and sexually assaulted one of them, who was 13 years old.
Both victims were rescued by deputies and transported to a local hospital for evaluation.
While investigating, detectives learned that Soriano met the girls on a social media application. He then allegedly communicated with the victims and made a plan to pick them up.

The girls said they were fearful of Soriano because he had a firearm.
Police said it is possible that Soriano previously met with at least one of the juvenile victims previously.
Soriano remains held in the Lake County Jail pending an initial court hearing.
Additionally, sheriff’s deputies said while searching Soriano’s home, they located a cannabis-growing operation.
Additional charges are possible.

Illinois will be fourth school for Tomiwa Durojaiye
Tomiwa Durojaiye was a three-star recruiting win for Kentucky in the 2022 high school cycle. The Delaware native picked the Wildcats over South Carolina after recording 58 tackles, 25.5 tackles for loss, 10 sacks, and two forced fumbles as a senior. The senior defensive lineman would spend just one season in Lexington.
Duojiaye entered the transfer portal in the spring window ahead of the 2023 season. Durojaiye landed at West Virginia and had a strong year as a redshirt freshman. The defensive lineman recorded 23 tackles, six tackles for loss, 3.5 sacks, 14 pressures, and played 270 snaps. Despite the strong close to see playing for a 9-4 team, Durojaiye decided to enter the portal again.
Tomiwa Durojaiye landed at Florida State and only played 32 snaps this season. Durojaiye then became a three-time transfer when he entered the transfer portal on Dec. 9. The defensive lineman found another power conference home on Tuesday.
The defensive lineman has committed to Illinois and will play in a fourth power conference in 2025 after spending time in the SEC, Big 12, and ACC.
Alex Afari Jr. and Josh Kattus are the only signees from Kentucky’s 2022 high school class remaining on the roster.
