Nye County Sheriff's Office detectives arrested a man this week, accusing him of lewdness with a 12-year-old girl.
Detectives arrested 36-year-old Adolfo Magana Sandoval of Pahrump at about 4:45 p.m. Wednesday at his home, the sheriff's office said.
Sandoval was booked into the Nye County Detention Center on one count each of open and gross lewdness, sexual assault with a child under age 14, statutory sexual seduction and lewdness with a child under 14.
Detectives said Sandoval allegedly engaged in sexual activity with an unidentified 12-year-old girl for about two months.
A search warrant allowed detectives to search Sandoval's residence and evidence was taken from the home.
Sandoval's bail has been set at $80,000.

SCUM LIKE THIS GIVES PAHRUMP A BAD NAME
This guy must be Shecky's primo.
Just here to do the jobs Americans dont wanna do!
Deport Illegals!
Alot of "comment removed by staff" on this one, I wonder why ?
Even I, as a registered drooling liberal, have problems with this gentleman. He's 36, and really should be sentenced to a term that equals his age, in other words 36 plus 36 equals his first parole hearing. "Eh, what'cha say, speak up Sonny, it's 2045..."
throw the book at him, predator, nothing more.

with the racial comments
I know him he didn't do this crime. Stop removing my comments
I also know him and know that he didn't do this. These are just allegations no one has been covicted of anything.
