A Madison County man was arrested this week for allegedly sexually assaulting three children in Athens.
Wendell Daniel Coker, 32, of Irvin Kirk Road in Danielsville, was booked into the Clarke County Jail Thursday night on three counts each of child molestation and sexual battery of a child under 16, according to the jail’s website.
Athens-Clarke County police, who investigated the alleged assaults, said they could not release the reports due to the alleged victims’ ages and the nature of the allegations.
According to ACCPD Capt. John Radford, two of the victims were eight and nine years old, but he did not know the age of the third victim, who he said was a juvenile male.
Radford said he did not know when the alleged assaults occurred, except, that “this was a pattern over several months.“
Coker was charged with all six offenses under the state Family Violence Act, an indication that he knew the victims.
Coker was being held at the county jail without bail being set.
Me and my family have known Daniel Coker for years now he would never do anything like this to his children or anyone else kids he is a really great father to his kids he is one hell of a guy he will always be a member of this family HE IS NOT NO CHILD MOLESTER believe me the truth will come out
This man IS NOT a child molester he was a great dad but the issue was that he was taking care of a another woman and her newborn child and his wife got jealous when she heard about it. The children came to there mom and told them pollo there moms boyfriend NOT Daniel Coker touched them there is messages to prove this and I've known Daniel hes a great father to his children and children that aren't even his he'd never do this.
