Legislator Ben Boykin Also Knew of Potential Child Sex Crimes by Anand Singh--The dominoes are falling at the Westchester Board of Legislators.--

Mark Parolisi--April 21, 2023

After a live-streamed video of Westchester County Board of Legislators staffer, Anand Singh, aired in December 2022 committing what appeared to be solicitation of sex with a minor, the BOL was notified. Our initial reporting only provided evidence that Colin Smith was informed of Singh’s behavior. We have now learned that Ben Boykin of district five was also notified in December.

The private Youtube group, OBL Global, conducts undercover sting operations to catch potential sexual predators. In December 2022, they lured Anand Singh to meet what he believed to be a 14 year-old girl for a sexual encounter. Viewers of this livestream video then contacted Singh’s employer, the Westchester County BOL.

Colin Smith of the first legislative district responded to these contacts about Singh on December 31, 2022. In speaking with Smith, we confirmed that he notified others in government like Chairwoman Borgia (to whom Anand directly reports), the Department of Public Safety, as well as the Clerk for the BOL. However, we’ve now been informed that Ben Boykin also received a similar email and transmitted that correspondence to the Clerk at the same time.

In recent days, we received reports of Boykin’s knowledge from a BOL-affiliate and the author of the email itself. On the same day that Colin was notified, so was Boykin. READ MORE AT Ben Boykin Also Knew of Potential Child Sex Crimes in Government (theyonkersledger.com)
