According to reports, the deputy observed “Bradley engaged in unlawful sex acts with the minor.” Bradley, according to reports, consented to a search of his phone, which revealed nude photos of the victim, along with other possible juvenile victims.
The deputy took Bradley into custody, transporting him to San Bernardino County Sheriff’s headquarters for questioning. Investigators discovered that Bradley, who had met the victim on a social on-line dating site, is a youth counselor at Star Shine Treatment Center in San Bernardino, and also Trinity Youth Outreach in Yucaipa.
The sheriff department’s Crimes Against Children Detail took over the criminal investigation, which is now being conducted to search for possible additional victims.
Bradley, who is being held on $125,000 bail, will face charges of sexual acts with a person against their will and possession of obscene matter, along with lewd and lascivious acts with a child.
He is being held at the West Valley Detention Center in Rancho Cucamonga.
