The Ecuadorian migrant charged with raping a 13-year-old girl he bound and gagged in a Queens park told cops he recorded the attack during a sickening taped confession, prosecutors alleged Wednesday.
The chilling admission by Christian Geovanny Inga-Landi, 25, broke the otherwise-hushed court hearing in which he was arraigned on charges of rape, kidnapping and a raft of other felonies from the shocking June 13 attack in Kissena Park.
“I was nervous at first, then got comfortable and recorded it,” Inga-Landi admitted in the video, prosecutors said in Queens Criminal Court, drawing sighs from the audience.
Inga-Landi, who had scratches visible on his face, scowled and kept his head down throughout the arraignment, including as a judge ordered him held without bail until his next court appearance July 1.
The shocking videotaped statement, a transcript of which was read in court by Assistant District Attorney Kasey Esposito, revealed new details about the broad-daylight attack in which the girl and a boy, both 13, were held at knifepoint with a “machete-style” blade.
Inga-Landi, who contended he had a drug problem, told cops he stumbled across the two teens having “sexual relations,” Esposito read.
