An 18-year-old Long Island man allegedly raped two 11-year-old boys he met on Snapchat – and brushed off the sick abuse as a prank or dare, prosecutors said.

Bradley Schioppa, under the user name “paxonhotsg5,” allegedly joined a Snapchat conversation set up for 11-year-old boys in the Smithtown area back in April, the Suffolk County DA’s office said.

The boys assumed Schioppa was around their own age, and did not question his participation in the chat, the DA’s office said.

It wasn’t until Schioppa started showing up in person at spots where the boys gathered – including Robert A. Brady Park in Smithtown – that they realized he was older, prosecutors said.

He drove the boys around in his car, bought them snacks and soft drinks and played prank games with them, according to authorities.

But during their outings, Schioppa allegedly sexually abused one of the boys in the Brady Park bathroom, and the other in the restroom of a Smithtown CVS, prosecutors said.

In both cases, he allegedly framed the abuse as a prank or dare that the boys would be paid for, authorities said.

In May 2025, the mother of one of the boys discovered messages between Schioppa and her son, prosecutors said.

When she questioned her pre-teen son, he revealed the alleged abuse.

Why do 11-year-olds have Snapchat? Hell, I didn't even use my now-adult daughter's name on social until she was over 18!! Not victim blaming, this guy is obviously a perv, but I don't understand kids that age having full access to the innerwebs.
