MESA, AZ — A Mesa man has been charged with molesting the daughters of a family friend.

Mesa police report that on February 26, they arrested 34-year-old Danny Pech.

Pech is accused of molesting a 9-year-old girl nearly a decade ago at her home in Mesa. Court documents show that Pech sat next to the girl on her bed, removed her clothes and molested her.

During the investigation, it was learned that Pech might have molested another girl several more times and took photos of her while she slept.

Police say other incidents involving Pech are still being investigated.

Pech has been charged with sexual abuse, voyeurism and seven counts of child molestation.
