A former Boy Scouts of America camp counselor was arrested Sunday, Jan. 1, on suspicion of sexually assaulting a 16-year-old boy in 2015 at a camp in Cedar Glen.
Sean Justin Lee, 23, was booked into jail on suspicion of sodomizing an unconscious person and oral copulation of a minor, according to a San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department news release. The Fullerton man was released from jail Sunday evening after posting $100,000 bail.
The victim and his parents reported the alleged assault to deputies in October 2015, the news release said. The case was transferred to the Sheriff's Specialized Investigations Division -- Crimes Against Children Detail.
Detectives determined that the incident occurred in June 2015, when Lee worked as a camp counselor at the Cedar Glen camp, the news release said. Detectives conducted a "lengthy investigation and numerous interviews of persons who attended or worked at the camp during that time frame," the news release said.
Deputies obtained a warrant for Lee's arrest Dec. 30. Lee surrendered to deputies two days later.
Anyone with further information helpful to the investigation may call Detective MJ Higgins or Sgt. Dana Foster with the Crimes Against Children Detail at 909-387-3615.
