Father and Son Accused of Sexually Abusing Daycare Kids

Jason jsipe on July 17, 2013

KATU News ran a story yesterday about a woman who alleged being sexually abused as a 10 year-old girl by former Riverdale Grade School janitor, Lynn Payne, 72, while she was being babysat by him in the Washington County neighborhood daycare business he ran 40 years ago.

Payne, along with his son, Bryan Payne, 46, a former Tigard High School groundskeeper, were recently arrested for allegedly sexually abusing at least two girls.

If these charges prove to be true, it is possible that more people may know information regarding these two men and the jobs that granted them constant solitary contact with children.
