(Anderson, SC). Charles Randy Horne, Jr. pled guilty today to four counts of Criminal Sexual Conduct with a Minor 1st Degree. The Honorable J.C. “Buddy” Nicholson sentenced Horne to 23 years in prison. He will be required to register as a sex offender upon his release.

Horne was arrested in 2008 after the female victim, now 16, reported to law enforcement that the defendant had molested her on multiple occasions when she was between the ages of 6 and 9. The victim was in the custody of Horne’s parents at the time of the incidents.

“Mr. Horne took advantage of a young innocent girl, forever changing her life. It took great courage for this young lady to confront her abuser. Hopefully she can now move on with her life.” Solicitor Chrissy Adams.
