LEXINGTON, S.C. – Lexington County deputies have arrested a Little Mountain man accused of sexual activity with teen girls he lured to meet him with promises of vaping devices.
Trevor Grant Oty, 20, is charged with two counts of solicitation of a minor, and one count of second-degree criminal sexual conduct with a minor, and trafficking in persons, according to arrest warrants.
“This case started when the mother of one of the victims reached out to us during the summer with concerns her daughter had been assaulted,” Lexington County Sheriff Jay Koon said. “Detectives opened an investigation, which included forensic interviews with victims, and determined Oty would arrange to meet girls and exchange sexual favors for vaping devices.”
Two girls are associated with the charges against Oty, who was arrested Aug. 12, according to Koon.
“There could be more victims than these two young ladies,” Koon said. “This case is still open and our investigation is ongoing. We encourage anyone who’s had any contact with Oty that included so-called discounts for vaping devices, electronic cigarettes or any other items to give us a call as soon as possible.”
Koon said detectives can be reached at 803-785-8230 and anonymous tips can be shared on the Midlands Crimestoppers app.
