CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) -- The Citadel's internal investigation into the handling of a complaint about a former camp counselor molesting boys is being delayed up to three months.
The Post and Courier of Charleston reported Thursday that special counsel Joe McCulloch says the delay comes because one of the two firms hired to conduct the investigation was too expensive. McCulloch says another firm has been found.
The investigation centers on how the college handled the complaint about former camp counselor and Citadel graduate Skip ReVille. The school looked into the complaint but never contacted police.
ReVille was sentenced in June to 50 years in prison after pleading guilty to 22 abuse counts.
McCulloch says the internal investigation will be done by March.
