From Dothan, Alabama, group home worker Shon Christopher Holton, 43, was arrested and “charged him with 10 felony counts of custodial sexual misconduct” ” with a teenage boy at the home.”
“Glover said Holton worked for the Alabama Department of Youth Services as an employee for a local boys group home.
“While he was working there he conducted inappropriate acts with a juvenile,” Glover said.
Glover said the victim was a teenage boy, who was inappropriately contacted on multiple occasions between February and June of 2015.
Glover said some of the offenses occurred at the facility where the suspect worked, which was not identified, and some of the other offenses occurred at a local residence while some others occurred at other local Department of Youth Services facilities.
Glover said the criminal charge of prohibited act (custodial sexual misconduct) is not commonly used.
“This is the first time I’ve actually seen this type of charge, Glover said.
Holton was taken into custody after his arrest and later booked into the Houston County Jail.”
