Worker at Cape Camp Kills Self Amid Abuse Case Investigation By Shelley Murphy and Akilah Johnson Boston Globe April 7, 2011 http://members.boston.com/reg/login.do?dispatch=loginpage&redirect=wall SANDWICH — A longtime employee of a Christian camp killed himself yesterday, two days after prosecutors confirmed they were investigating allegations that he sexually assaulted a camper in the mid-1980s, according to authorities. Charles "Chuck" Devita was found shot to death in his red pickup truck at Camp Good News. It is the same camp that apologized to US Senator Scott Brown recently after he disclosed in his autobiography that he was molested by a camp counselor four decades ago. Late last night Devita's mother — Sandy Devita, 61, of Tampa — said in a phone interview that she suspected her son may have been molesting children when he was in his early 20s and that she brought her concerns to the camp's former director, Faith Willard, who said nothing was amiss. "They said they didn't see anything going on, basically," Devita said. "They were more afraid that he was gay than that he was molesting children." |
