SUSPECT
Robert Roland Yerton Jr.: Accused of lewd molestation and sexual abuse, he has been a teacher, children’s minister and youth group leader.

Believing that there could be more victims who have yet to come forward, Tulsa police are continuing to investigate the Skelly Elementary School assistant principal who has been charged with three sex offenses against children.

Robert Roland Yerton Jr., 41, is charged in Tulsa County District Court with the lewd molestation of a 6-year-old boy in a school office on Oct. 21 and two counts of sexual abuse involving a boy he is related to between 2003 and 2009.

Police said their investigation also revealed that a former student is a third apparent victim of sexual abuse, but no charges regarding that student were filed because the allegations stem from a 1996 incident, which is outside the statute of limitations.
