Caseworker charged with sexual assault

BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) - A registered sex offender who somehow got a youth mentoring job with the Urban League, has been charged with the sexual assault of a boy in Buffalo.

Police say the Buffalo Urban League hired 44-year-old Phillip T. Young as a family caseworker in 2000, unaware of his sex offender status.

Young lost his job and served a year in jail after a 2006 arrest, for making sexual overtures to a teen he brought home. But, police say he reconnected with a family he previously served and molested a 13-year-old boy, last August.
