GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — A former Cadet leader at a Muskegon church has been accused of sexually assaulting young boys back in the 1970s and early 1980s.

The Muskegon County Prosecutor’s Office said Randall Doctor is being investigated for the alleged crimes but so far is not being charged.

“He would take us out in the woods after the driving of the semi and he would do terrible and horrendous things to us,” said Brad White, one of Doctors alleged victims.

The reason he isn’t being charged is because the alleged abuse happened at a time where Michigan had a statute of limitations on first degree criminal sexual conduct against a child.
