Man sentenced to eight years in prison for sexually assaulting a minor in Vineland

A Gloucester County man who admitted to sexually abusing multiple minors in Vineland for nearly three decades was sentenced Monday to eight years in prison, the Cumberland County District Attorney’s Office said.

Andy Chanza, 67, of Newfield, pleaded guilty in December to four counts of sexual assault. He must serve 85% of his sentence before being eligible for parole, must register as a sex offender upon his release and is subject to lifelong parole supervision, prosecutors said in a news release.

The charges stemmed from multiple incidents in which Chanza sexually abused four victims under the age of 13 over a 29-year period.
