Bend man appears in court on abuse charges

A Bend man made his first court appearance Friday, the day after his arrest on allegations he gave a young girl alcohol and sexually abused her.

Police said George Eisal, 43, is accused of touching a young girl’s breasts over her clothes last week after providing her with alcohol.

He is charged with five counts of first-degree sex abuse, coercion and giving alcohol to a minor.

Eisal appeared by video hookup from the Deschutes County Jail for his first court appearance before Circuit Judge Roger DeHoog. He’s being represented by defense attorney Jacques DeKalb.

Eisal is scheduled to be back in court on Jan. 30.
