The boys had gathered at the Warminster Recreation Center to shoot some hoops. Admittedly, they smoked some marijuana, too.
When they were caught by then-Warminster Officer James Carey, who ran the youth program there and knew some of the boys from his work as the town DARE officer, they knew they could get in trouble.
But Carey, prosecutors allege, saw the incident as an opportunity to prey on at least one of the boys.
He took the boy behind a curtain and while patting him down, fondled him, the now 37-year-old man testified in court Monday. He said he walked away and kept it to himself. After all, he testified, Carey had found marijuana in his sock.

On Tuesday, Bucks County Detective Greg Beidler testified that investigators received several new leads in the case after an April 7 news conference about it. He said detectives are investigating claims from potential new victims of Carey now.
In a news release, the DA s office said it strongly believes there are even more victims in the case. They re asking anyone with information to call Bucks County Detectives at 215-340-8216 or 215-348-6504.
Carey worked for Warminster Township from May 1989 until he retired from the police force in May of 2009. Prosecutors say he abused all four boys while he was an officer.
