Medway Announces Child Sex Charges

Medway Police Press Release:

Earlier this week, the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of Massachusetts released a statement regarding a new federal charge against Wilson Fabian Mizhurumbay Granda, 23, of Holliston. Granda has been charged federally with one count of sexual exploitation of children.

Following the release of that statement, the Medway Police Department is sharing information for the first time about a case involving Granda that remains pending in Norfolk County Superior Court.

Due to the victim’s age and the sensitive, ongoing nature of the investigation, the Medway Police Department has not previously released information and cannot provide any additional details beyond this release.

In December of 2025, Granda was indicted on two counts of Rape of a Child with Force and one count of Enticement of a Child following an investigation led by Medway Police Detective Thomas Godino. The investigation was conducted in conjunction with the Millis Police Department, the Holliston Police Department, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Norfolk County District Attorney’s Office.

Granda has remained in custody since 2024 in connection with charges across multiple jurisdictions and states. The Medway case remains ongoing.

“Investigations involving crimes against children require tremendous care, patience, and collaboration,” Chief Kingsbury said. “Our thoughts remain with the victim and their loved ones as this case moves through the court system. I want to recognize Detective Godino for his dedication to this investigation and thank the Millis Police Department, Holliston Police Department, FBI, and the Norfolk County District Attorney’s Office for their partnership. We remain committed to seeking justice while protecting the victim’s privacy and well-being.”

Information regarding the federal charge is available through the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Massachusetts.

Defendant previously convicted of rape of child and enticement

BOSTON – A Holliston, Mass. man was charged yesterday in federal court in Boston with sexually exploiting a minor.

Wilson Fabian Mizhirumbay Granda, 23, was charged with one count of sexual exploitation of children. Granda is currently in Rhode Island state custody on an unrelated criminal case and will appear in federal court in Boston at a later date.

Between August and September 2023, Granda is alleged to have coerced a minor victim to engage in sexually explicit conduct.

Granda has prior state convictions in Hampshire Country Superior Court for rape of a child and enticing a child under 16, for which he was sentenced in May 2024 to four years and one day in state prison to be followed by five years of probation. Currently, Granda also has pending charges in Norfolk County for rape of child with force, rape of child and enticing a child under 16 related to another minor.

The charge of sexual exploitation of children provides for a sentence of up to 30 years in prison, a lifetime of supervised release and a fine of up to $250,000. Sentences are imposed by a federal district court judge based upon the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and statutes which govern the determination of a sentence in a criminal case.

United States Attorney Leah B. Foley and Ted E. Docks, Special Agent in Charge of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Boston Division made the announcement today. Valuable assistance was provided by the Holliston, Scituate (R.I.), Amherst, Westminster, Medway, Worcester, Millis and UMass Lowell Police Departments; and the Middlesex County, Hampshire County, Northwestern County, Norfolk County and Worcester County District Attorney’s Offices. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorneys David G. Tobin and Jessica L. Soto of the Criminal Division.

This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse, launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice. Led by the U.S. Attorneys’ Offices and the DOJ’s Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section, Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state, and local resources to locate, apprehend, and prosecute individuals who exploit children, as well as identify and rescue victims.
