According to the Montgomery County Prosecutor’s Office, the sexual battery charges were in connection with a late disclosure of sexual abuse from around 10 years ago.
Dayton police investigated after the victim reported that Salyers had sexually abused her when she was around 15 years old.
Salyers was known to the victim, according to the prosecutor’s office.
We have reached out to the prosecutor’s office to see if these charges are for this victim or if another person has come forward.
Salyers is in custody and due next in court on Nov. 18.
