The sheriff’s office also said evidence collected by investigators “suggests a pattern of ongoing abuse, including an incident at a child’s birthday party and organized ‘fight nights’ where the children were forced to fight one another.” Hayford was also alleged to have had “inappropriate sexual contact involving one of the children.”
