Andrew Gallo, a Pennsylvania resident, has been arrested and charged with multiple offenses, including rape and providing drugs to minors, after allegedly drugging and sexually assaulting several women he met through a dating website.

Andrew Gallo, a Bristol Township resident, has been apprehended and incarcerated subsequent to allegations of drugging and sexually assaulting multiple women he encountered on a dating website. According to the Bucks County District Attorney's Office, Gallo has been charged with five counts of rape by causing impairment and six counts of possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance.

The suspect has also been charged with four counts of strangulation, two counts of furnishing alcohol or malt or brewed beverages to minors, and one count of corruption of minors. Authorities arrested Gallo on Wednesday following a thorough investigation.

Authorities allege that Gallo met his victims through a website called sugardaddymeet.com, where he employed the usernames DREWSTER4200 and KAE. The site markets itself as "a platform for generous men and attractive women seeking genuine connections."

Upon establishing contact with the women through the website, Gallo arranged dates with them at his residence, where he boasted about his exceptional drink-making skills. Unbeknownst to the unsuspecting victims, Gallo surreptitiously laced their beverages with controlled substances, including methamphetamine.

The ages of the victims ranged from 17 to 30. Following the ingestion of the tainted drinks, the victims described experiencing peculiar sensations that deviated from their typical responses to alcohol consumption. They reported feelings of diminished control during the sexual encounters, asserting their inability to resist Gallo's advances.

The effects of the drugs persisted for an extended period, with the victims describing symptoms such as days of insomnia, hallucinations, and episodes of psychosis. Authorities executed a search warrant at Gallo's residence in August, uncovering a tequila bottle containing methamphetamine.

"The victims in this case have displayed remarkable bravery," declared District Attorney Jennifer Schorn during a press conference held on Wednesday. "They have stepped forward to report these heinous crimes, which predators like Gallo often assume their victims will lack the fortitude to do. I applaud their strength and courage."

Gallo is currently incarcerated at the Bucks County Correctional Facility. Fox News Digital has reached out to sugardaddymeet.com for further comment but has yet to receive a response.

The charges against Gallo highlight the dangers associated with online dating and the importance of exercising caution when meeting individuals met through such platforms. Individuals should be wary of individuals who attempt to pressure them into compromising situations or who exhibit suspicious behavior.
