SIDNEY, Ohio (WDTN) - New information about a Shelby County worker accused of assaulting a teenager.
Officials say Whitfield Farley was working as night shift supervisor at the
Clear Creek Juvenile facility when he attacked a 17 year old girl.
He pled not guilty to four counts of sexual battery in a Shelby County Courtroom Wednesday.
Farley's attorney says the allegations have ruined his client's reputation.
"He looks forward to clearing up his name. Obviously, when you're accused of sex crimes, your name is tarnished in the community," said Chris Bucio, Farley's attorney.
Farley's bond was set at $40,000.
He's not allowed to have contact with any children other than his own and is on unpaid administrative leave.
The girl he's accused of assaulting has returned to her home in Indiana.
