CHEEKTOWAGA, NY — A Lancaster man faces child sex charges for his alleged sexual contact with a 12-year-old girl last year.
Caleb Sexton, 27, is charged by Cheektowaga Police with a criminal sexual act in the second degree, sexual abuse in the second degree, and child endangerment.
Police say this all took place at the Hedstrom Baptist church over a nine-month period last year.
That’s where the relationship started. Sexton and his then-12 year-old victim met at church. Then they became friends on Facebook, where Cheektowaga police say the two often chatted.
“It ended up turning into a relationship where he took advantage of her trust,” said assistant police chief Jim Speyer.
