A man from Florence has been formally charged with multiple felonies in connection with the alleged sexual abuse of two minors in Lauderdale County. Court records indicate that 60-year-old Scotty Reppond is facing serious accusations involving sexual acts with two children, both of whom are under the age of 12. The allegations detail that one of the minors was reportedly subjected to additional sexual contact and sodomy.
On July 21, a grand jury in Lauderdale County issued an indictment against Reppond, which includes two counts of rape, one count of sodomy, and one count of sexual abuse involving a child under the age of 12. Following the grand jury’s decision, Reppond was apprehended on Monday and is currently being held in custody as the legal proceedings continue.
Local law enforcement is actively managing the case, which remains under investigation as authorities gather more information.
