Ex-Hub city councilor Scondras avoided Jail in a plea deal must must register as sex offender.


A former Boston city councilor pleaded guilty yesterday to enticing a child under 16 and was ordered to register as a sex offender.

David Scondras, 61, of Cambridge avoided jail time in a plea deal with prosecutors from the Essex District Attorney’s Office, under which he was sentenced to 18 months’ probation, ordered to surrender his computer, and stay off the Internet and away from children younger than 16. Scondras appeared yesterday in Lawrence District Court.

Scondras was arrested in October, when, after lengthy computer chats as part of a sting, he arranged to meet who he thought was a 15-year-old boy in a Lawrence parking lot.
