NEWARK, N.J. – A New York man was sentenced today to 108
months in prison for assaulting and kidnapping an individual with whom he had a
romantic relationship, U.S. Attorney Craig Carpenito announced.
Rudolf Szoradi, 51, previously pleaded guilty before U.S.
District Judge Jose J. Linares in Newark federal court to an information
charging him with one count of kidnapping and interstate domestic violence.
U.S. District Judge Esther Salas imposed the sentence today in Newark federal
court.
According to documents filed in this case and statements
made in court:
Szoradi and the victim previously had a romantic
relationship. On Dec. 15, 2017, Szoradi assaulted the victim with a knife in
the basement of a Newark residence. The victim suffered serious injuries.
Szoradi then confined her in a vehicle against her will and drove her across
state lines, eventually reaching North Carolina, where the victim was able to
receive medical attention for her injuries.
In addition to the prison term, Judge Salas sentenced
Szoradi to five years of supervised release.
U.S. Attorney Carpenito credited special agents of the FBI,
under the direction of Special Agent in Charge Gregory W. Ehrie in Newark, with
the investigation leading to today’s sentencing. He also thanked the Newark
Police Division and Clayton, North Carolina, police department for their
assistance.
The government is represented by Assistant U.S. Attorney
Matthew Feldman Nikic of the U.S. Attorney’s Office’s Criminal Division in
Newark.
