LEXINGTON (WACH) – Lexington County deputies have arrested a 56-year-old Gaston man and charged him with inappropriately touching the private parts of an 88-year-old woman.
Investigators say Jimmy Davis Shivers sexually assaulted the woman at a residential medical facility near West Columbia. According to officials, Shivers was visiting another resident at Heartland of Lexington Rehabilitation and Nursing Center when he went into the woman’s room and placed his hands inside her clothes. Investigators say the victim had a medical condition that made her unaware of what was going on.
Shivers is charged with third-degree criminal sexual conduct and assault with the intent to commit criminal sexual conduct. Shivers is being held at the Lexington County Detention Center on $50,000 bail.
Lexington County Sheriff James Metts asks anyone with information about additional incidents in which Shivers might have inappropriately touched residents at the medical facility to contact the Sheriff’s Department at (803) 785-8230 or CrimeStoppers at 1-888-CRIME-SC.
