‘Forcible’ Sex Act Alleged

Thu, 02/15/2024 - 11:16

A Bridgehampton man was charged with two first-degree felonies, “criminal sex act by forcible compulsion” and criminal contempt, following an incident on Feb. 7 at a house on Accabonac Road in East Hampton. The case involves a woman whom he’d been ordered to stay away from, East Hampton Town police reported.

Vincent Eames, 50, has been remanded to the custody of the Suffolk County Sheriff’s office in lieu of $25,000 cash bail. Town Justice David Filer ordered him held during an arraignment on Saturday.

Police said in two separate arrest reports that Mr. Eames grabbed the victim by her hair and head and forced her to perform oral sex. Town Justice Steven Tekulsky had ordered him to keep his distance from her just three days before.

No further information was available by press time this week.
