Sheriff highlights elder abuse contrast with child abuse
Elwell says cruelty charges involve aggravated cases and that the sheriff’s office does not arrest parents for disciplining children. He notes elder abuse cases are rarer, with one to two per month versus dozens of child abuse cases. The Aiken County Sheriff’s Office logged 153 sex crimes against children last year, excluding cruelty and neglect. Tips to the sheriff’s office or Crime Stoppers offer anonymous rewards.
