Sheriff looks into allegations at 2 daycares
Sheriff Pat Kelly confirmed Sunday that his office is investigating claims by six area families that their pre-school-aged children may have been subjected to sexual groping at two daycare centers in Athens County.
The alleged victims are children 3 to 5 years old. The sheriff's office has a person of interest; he said this person is not an employee of either of the daycare centers, which are located in the Dover Township and Trimble areas.
The alleged victims are children 3 to 5 years old. The sheriff's office has a person of interest; he said this person is not an employee of either of the daycare centers, which are located in the Dover Township and Trimble areas.
Kelly said he's not releasing any identifying information on the person of interest because charges have not been filed. He said that as of now, the allegations involve "just petting and groping" of the children, not acts that would qualify as rape, though that could change as more information comes to light.
Currently, Kelly said, progress on the investigation awaits the return of DNA evidence analysis by the Ohio Attorney General's office. He would not reveal what type of physical evidence is being tested.
