Deputies say 21-year-old Henry David Legrande Jr. is charged with criminal sexual conduct with a minor first degree, criminal sexual conduct with a minor third degree, three counts of exploitation of a minor second degree and two counts of exploitation of a minor third degree.
“This arrest could not have taken place if not for the partnership between your KCSO and the SC Attorney General’s Office. We have no tolerance for child predators. If you go after our children, we will go after you,” said Sheriff Lee Boan.
