MONTE RIO // Sonoma County Sheriff’s Detectives have announced the arrest of a local 67-year-old man on charges of lewd acts with an underage boy.

The investigation began on October 15th, 2017, when the boy reported that Jeffrey Steven Cotton, a marriage and family therapist he’d been seeing for around 6 months, had been providing him with marijuana and eventually sexually assaulted him.

The victim also believes that Cotton may have assaulted other underage victims, due to his profession frequently involving one-on-one time with them, and the Sheriff’s Office Domestic Violence/Sexual Assault Unit ultimately determined there was sufficient evidence to corroborate the boy’s account of Cotton’s actions.

Cotton was arrested at his home in Monte Rio and is being held on $30,000 bond.
