The three boys, who were between the ages of 9 and 10 at the time of the assaults from October 2014 and January 2015, told their mothers, who confronted the suspect, according to the arrest affidavit.

When confronted, the suspect admitted to sexually abusing the boys and ran away with a gun, threatening to kill himself, the affidavit said.

One of the boys said the suspect sexually assaulted him seven to eight times. At least two of the boys were related to the suspect, who would babysit them at times, according to the affidavit.
