Luna County Sheriff’s Investigator Michael Brown said 34-year-old Cameron Scott Privett was arrested last month in Risingsun, Ohio, for battery against 35-year-old Sarah Privett of Deming.
Brown said Ohio authorities extradited Scott Privett on the criminal-sexual-penetration-of-a-minor warrant, but were unaware that Sarah Privett also had a Luna County warrant for child abuse.
Brown said Sarah Privett returned to Farmington, Minnesota, where she has since been arrested and is in the process of being extradited on the Luna County warrant.
Brown said the charges relate to the sexual abuse of a family member that started in Minnesota and continued in Luna County.
Child sex charges are pending against Scott Privett in Minnesota as well.
The 8-year-old female victim is now living with a family member out-of-state.
