Jul. 21—OXFORD — A two-week investigation into a sexual assault resulted in charges against a Lafayette County man.

Oxford police were alerted by Child Protective Services on July 7 that a man had allegedly molested a child. Following an investigation, authorities arrested Clarence Wayne Shinault, Jr., 32, of Oxford, on July 19 and charged him with molestation — touching a child for lustful purposes.

During his initial appearance in Lafayette County Justice Court, bond was set at $2,500.

Man sues police for defamation after charges dropped
A South Carolina man whose charges were dropped after police body camera footage showed he did not fight an officer who attacked him is suing the city of Rock Hill and U.S Rep. Ralph Norman for defamation. Travis Price worked second shift at a chemical plant and has no criminal record so the untrue items in the police news release issued after leaders had seen the body camera were especially damaging to Price's reputation, his lawyer wrote in his lawsuit. In a Facebook posting, Norman repeated those false police statements slandering Price more, the lawsuit said.
