Man Allegedly Gropes Young Woman on 7-Train: NYPD

A Queens grand jury indicted a married couple from Jamaica Estates for abusing nine infants and toddlers at the daycare center they operated in the home on 188th Street near Midland Parkway, Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz announced on Thursday.

Ilya Davydov, 48, and Ksenia Davydov, 41, promised to provide a “safe, caring, and nurturing environment” for the children entrusted into their care. Instead, they allegedly grabbed and kicked babies, shoved a soiled diaper into a baby’s mouth and dropped one child onto a table with such force that his hearing aids detached from his head.
