Following a recent alert to a sexual battery incident involving a child, detectives with the Santa Cruz County Sheriff’s Office apprehended 67-year-old Kevin Hurley on March 21 after obtaining a warrant for his arrest, according to a release posted to the agency’s Facebook page on Friday.
The agency did not specify when the incident happened, only that it was several years ago. Hurley was arrested on several sex-related charges including lewd and lascivious acts with a child and dissuading a victim or witness.
The Sheriff’s Office investigation revealed at least two victims and, based on findings, detectives identified Hurley and took him in.
Because Hurley was previously involved in a local youth agricultural program and church group, detectives are looking into the potential for additional victims, according to the post.
