“BATH, N.Y. (WENY) — A Canisteo man was convicted of sexually abusing a 9-year-old child, and could face up to 7-years behind bars for each count of sex abuse once sentenced.

The Steuben County District Attorney’s Office says 40-year-old Nathan J. Dupuis was convicted on two counts of sexual abuse, one count of attempted sexual abuse, and two counts of endangering the welfare of a child. His conviction came after Steuben County Court Judge, Honorable Chauncey Watches, returned a guilty verdict.

The DA’s office says Dupuis had sexual contact with a child at a home in the Village of Canisteo in June of 2018.

Sentencing is scheduled for April 24th at 9:30 a.m.”
