Man Pleads Not Guilty To Sexually Abusing Teen

[Hot Rodimus]

(CBS) CHICAGO The Wilmington man accused of sexually abusing a quadriplegic teenager several times last year pleaded not guilty to multiple counts of criminal sexual assault today during a preliminary trial.

Lawrence Southwood, 68, is expected to face more charges to be announced at a press conference later today. CBS 2's Kristyn Hartman reports those charges do not include any ties to the Riley Fox case.

Southwood babysat the 14-year-old he is accused of sexually abusing, a teenager whose mother Southwood befriended. Southwood is accused of raping the teen repeatedly over a nine-month period. He was arrested on Christmas and charged with three Class X felonies. If convicted, he faces up to 60 years in prison. He is being held at the Will County Jail on $2 million bond.

It was later revealed that Southwood fathered two children with his own daughter, Susan Clelland, whom he passed off as his wife. That relationship ended with his arrest in 1992. In that case, Southwood pleaded guilty to a felony charge of sexual relations within a family.

Clelland said she tried to warn the victim's family and the Department of Children and Family Services about Southwood.

“He can look like a decent guy on the outside, but that’s not what he is on the inside," Clelland said.

Southwood would not comment today at the Will County Courthouse

CBS) CHICAGO Will County authorities say a 68-year-old man sexually assaulted a quadriplegic teenager, then paid the victim's mother to keep quiet.

Now, both the mother and the alleged attacker face criminal charges.

Lawrence Southwood of Wilmington was indicted Thursday on aggravated criminal sexual assault and sexual abuse charges. He's being held on $2 million bond.

Will County prosecutors say he raped the girl while baby-sitting her. The teenage girl's mother, Kimberly Riordan, was charged with criminal neglect of a disabled person, obstructing justice and concealing a fugitive.

Will County investigators call it the worst case of abuse they’ve ever seen.

"He's sick. Really sick,” said neighbor Larry Turbett. “Sick people shouldn't be with other people."

Prosecutors say Southwood befriended the teen's mother.

It's alleged she accepted $10,000 in cash from Southwood to keep quiet about the alleged sexual assaults on her own daughter. Prosecutors say Riordan is partially responsible for her daughter's paralysis. She was drunk five years ago when she crashed her car and injured the girl.

"In 28 years in the criminal justice system, I've never encountered allegations of the magnitude we're going to be talking about here today," said Will County State’s Attorney James Glasgow.

Southwood was convicted of sexually abusing his own daughter in the past. He fathered two children with her 20 years ago while forcing her into what she calls a wife-like relationship.

Meantime, Riordan, the mother of the 14-year-old Southwood is accused of sexually assaulting, is being held on $250,000 bond. Southwood pleaded not guilty to the charges against him.

Authorities also are comparing Southwood's DNA to evidence from unsolved crimes, inlduding the unsolved Riley Fox murder case.

Police say that’s routine for sex offenders.

[Darkravager]

Man, I feel sorry for that little girl. First she is crippled by her alchie mother in a car accident, then she gets raped by a nasty old man. Damn.

[Boo]

Then her "mother" accepts money to hide the rapes.

Why, exactly, is chopping off sexual offenders' genitalia not allowed?

[Cheetatron]

Then her "mother" accepts money to hide the rapes.

Why, exactly, is chopping off sexual offenders' genitalia not allowed?Becuase they would just use other tools to facilitate the rapes from what I have heard like in the case of rapists who are given medicines to keep the baby maker flaccid.

[IACON]

Fry the bastered on the chair!

[Chaos Muffin]

E man!

Ewwwwww..... just ewwww, man...

[Starsabrej]

There is a guy running for governor here in Minnesota. He wants to impale criminals in front of the Capitol building. I would say that that would be a good punishment for this criminal.
