Charleston County deputies arrested a man Monday after a child told her mother he had sexually abused her.
Robert Lanier Jr., 62, is charged with first-degree criminal sexual conduct with a minor, according to jail records.
An affidavit states the child told her mother she had been abused and was “traumatized.”
Investigators spoke to the child, who lives out of state, who said the man entered into her sleeping area three to four nights and touched her inappropriately while she tried to sleep.
When questioned, Lanier allegedly referred to the incidents as “playing a tickling game,” affidavits state.
Lanier was being held at the Al Cannon Detention Center.
