He allegedly forced one of the children to touch him inappropriately in his Winthrop apartment, authorities said. In a separate incident in August, police in Rhode Island found the children in a parked vehicle while Yu was inside a casino, according to the DA's office. "There are many disturbing aspects of this case, and it certainly is not representative of the massive majority of adoptive parents who strive to present safe, loving environments for their children," Hayden said in a statement."I thank the investigators for their sensitive work with these children, and certainly the children themselves for relaying the disturbing conduct of this individual.
