It can be difficult as a parent to have real conversations with teenagers and get them to open up to you.
A 33-year-old Eutawville man faces charges after allegedly committing sexual acts multiple times with a 15-year-old girl.
Michael Dwayne Cross Jr., of 126 Factory Road, is facing one count of second-degree criminal sexual conduct with a minor and contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
Warrants accuse Cross of helping the 15-year-old run away from home on multiple occasions between August 27 and October 29, 2022.
The warrants claim the teenager said he engaged in sexual acts with Cross on four separate occasions.
The warrants also allege that Cross knowingly harbored and helped the runaway avoid detection by her parents and law enforcement by driving her to multiple locations in Orangeburg County, even hiding her in an unoccupied trailer on Gaillard Street in Eutawville.
Cross was taken into custody on Wednesday. Orangeburg County Magistrate Rob Clariday deferred setting bond for Crosss on the criminal sexual conduct charge to a circuit judge at a later date.
