Pilarski had been babysitting the child since March because his wife, who had been the child’s babysitter for four years, was out of state caring for her daughter. According to the complaint, Frank Pilarski consented to providing more details when contacted by an investigator, and later said “I made a mistake” and that he was “way older than old enough to know better.”
Pilarski is in court Wednesday for a preliminary hearing.
