Seabrook Man Indicted on Dozens of Severe Child Sex Abuse Charges Across Multiple Towns

Michael Perry Faces 44 New Indictments in Rockingham County for Child Rape, Incest, and Sexual Abuse Imagery

A Seabrook man, Michael Christopher Perry, 39, has been indicted on a staggering 44 new charges in Rockingham County, including aggravated felonious sexual assault, incest, and child sexual abuse imagery, involving girls under the age of 13. The alleged crimes span nearly two decades and multiple New Hampshire communities.

In a deeply troubling development out of Rockingham County, a Seabrook man, 39-year-old Michael Christopher Perry, is now facing a total of 44 new indictments related to serious child sexual abuse. This recent wave of charges significantly broadens the scope of allegations against him, marking a grave escalation in the legal proceedings.

The lengthy list of charges includes aggravated felonious sexual assault, sexual assault, and incest, alongside numerous counts related to child sexual abuse images. These horrific allegations involve young girls, all reportedly under the age of 13. The incidents themselves are said to have taken place across a frighteningly wide timeframe, stretching from as far back as 2005 right up until 2023, and are alleged to have occurred in several different New Hampshire communities, specifically Salem, Derry, Plaistow, and his hometown of Seabrook.

Perry, whose legal troubles began with his arrest in January 2023, has remained incarcerated without bail since that time, reflecting the extreme seriousness of the charges. It’s important to note that these new indictments are not his first; he had already been indicted in February on similar, though fewer, charges. The sheer volume of this latest indictment package certainly paints a grim picture for the legal road ahead.

He is scheduled to be formally arraigned on these new charges on Thursday, March 7th, at Rockingham County Superior Court, where he will be called to answer for the allegations. The ongoing investigation has seen dedicated work from local law enforcement, with Detective Matthew LeBaron of the Salem Police Department leading the charge. Assistant County Attorney Jennifer Haggar is tasked with prosecuting the case, working tirelessly to seek justice.

Given the extensive nature of these allegations and the wide timeframe involved, authorities are keenly aware that there may be other pertinent information or potential victims. Therefore, anyone who believes they might have relevant details concerning Michael Christopher Perry, or these alleged incidents, is strongly encouraged to come forward and contact the Salem Police Department directly. Every piece of information can be crucial in such sensitive investigations.
