A man from Newton, Massachusetts, was convicted of abusive sexual contact after prosecutors said he groped a 17-year-old girl through a seat on a flight from Puerto Rico to Boston in 2024. Federal prosecutors said Jonathan Alan Lefman faces up to two years in prison and is scheduled to be sentenced in January following a conviction last week. U.S. Attorney Leah Foley said the defendant “repeatedly sexually abused a minor” during commercial air travel. Prosecutors allege Lefman was traveling with his wife and children on Aug. 30, 2024, reaching through the seat in front to touch the girl’s rear multiple times.
