HUTCHINSON, Kan. — A South Hutchinson man made a first court appearance for charges associated with sexual abuse of children.

A 15-year-old girl was apparently going to Horizons for depression. It was learned that she had been sexually abused for some time by Shawn Rosenberg.

Also, a woman who is now 20 years old alleges she was sexually abused by Rosenberg. She says the abuse goes back to when she was 8 or 9 years old.

Potential charges against Rosenberg include two counts of violation of a protection from abuse order, aggravated sexual battery, aggravated indecent liberties with a child, and rape.

He’s jailed on a $161,000 bond. He should be back in court on Aug. 28.
