LEXINGTON COUNTY -- More charges are coming to a former substitute teacher charged with sexually abusing young boys.

The State Law Enforcement Division has charged 32-year-old Eric VanCleave with four counts of criminal sexual conduct with a minor and four counts of committing a lewd act on a child.

Investigators say the crimes happened over a three year period when VanCleave took boys camping at the Barnwell State Park and had sex with them.

These charges are on top of the 16 charges filed against him in February in cases in West Columbia.

Agents believe there could be more alleged victims.

The public is encouraged to call CrimeStoppers at 1-866-CRIME-SC to report any further criminal allegations of a sexual nature.  Your call can remain anonymous.
