In a media-obsessed city, this sort of fetish seems almost natural<\/a>*:<\/p>\n

A UPS manager was arrested for delivering cash to a teenage girl who fulfilled his sick sexual fetish by letting him prod her with a ballpoint pen, authorities said yesterday.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors said Frank Ranieri, 25, of Ashton Drive on Staten Island, sometimes posed as a cop to win the trust of high-school girls in front of whom he would masturbate after “puncturing their buttocks” with a pin or a pen, according to a criminal complaint.<\/p>\n

Although Ranieri was arrested for sexually assaulting only one of the girls, a 17-year-old, prosecutors said the deranged delivery man carried on with at least four other high school students, including one who was 15.<\/p>\n

“Several thousand dollars have been laid out for these acts,” said Wanda DeOliveira, a prosecutor for the Staten Island district attorney.<\/p>\n

DeOliveira said that starting in 2003, Ranieri used money and a promise of paper routes to target girls at Tottenville HS.<\/p>\n

Cops said his latest victim was assaulted numerous times over two weeks in April, during which he paid her at least $500.<\/p>\n

The victim suffered bleeding, bruising and substantial pain, according to officials.<\/p>\n

Ranieri was busted after one of the girls came forward to cops.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Or is this an “I have a gub”<\/a> moment? The Daily News seems to have heard it differently<\/a>:<\/p>\n

A former NYPD recruit told investigators he got pleasure out of paying underage girls on Staten Island to pierce their flesh with pins, law enforcement sources said yesterday.<\/p>\n

Frank Ranieri, 25, was arraigned in Staten Island Criminal Court on charges of second-degree assault as a sexually motivated crime, authorities said.<\/p>\n

“He said he liked to see the pins go through muscle and flesh,” a police source said. “A sexual deviant. He didn’t see much wrong with it.”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
