A second person has now been charged in connection with a missing Patchogue teen found on a boat.
Bunice Knight was arrested in connection with the missing 14-year-old, according to a source.
The 47-year-old is facing charges of rape and endangering the welfare of a child.
The minor victim, who had been missing for nearly a month, was allegedly at his home on Jan. 2, the day before she was found on a boat.
The details of the grand jury indictment will be unsealed at Knight’s arraignment, which is expected to happen in the coming weeks.
