Kershaw County, SC (WLTX) - Kershaw County deputies have arrested a man they say molested two small children.
Joseph Alton Boone, 32, of Camden is charged with two counts of criminal sexual conduct with a victim under 11 years of age in the first degree.
Officers say they got a complaint from the mother of two small children that Boone had assaulted her children between January 1 and January 12.
Boone and the mother knew each other, according to officers.
Kershaw County Sheriff Jim Matthews says forensic interviews of the children and an interview with Boone corroborated the allegation.
"The facts of this case are too explicit to describe in a public forum," said Sheriff Matthews in a statement. "These children will suffer from the effects of this abuse the rest of their lives. I just hope they can be placed in a loving, caring home. Boone's actions toward these two small children are despicable."
Boone is beind held at the Kershaw County Detention Center.
