PANAMA CITY — Police have arrested a Panama City man on charges of child molestation, according to court documents.
Harlin Richard Crowley, 25, was arrested Thursday after two children — a 12-year-old and a 9-year-old — said he molested them on more than one occasion. Both of the underage children said Crowley had touched them inappropriately. One of them told authorities he had taken pictures of her in the shower, according to Bay County Sheriff’s Office arrest records.
Investigators said Crowley admitted to touching the 12-year-old and taking pictures, but he denied everything else.
Crowley has been charged with two counts of lewd and lascivious molestation and one count of lewd and lascivious exhibition. His bond was set at a combined $25,000.
