West Valley man allegedly abused two 7-year-olds
A West Valley man faces four counts of aggravated sexual abuse of a child after prosecutors say he abused two 7-year-old girls.
Jimmie Joe Olson, 20, was charged in 3rd District Court Thursday with the four counts, all first-degree felonies, as well as one count of sodomy upon a child and one count of rape of a child, which are both first-degree felonies as well.
The charges say that the girls said that on or about May 30, Olson pulled down his pants and underwear and made both of them touch his genitals. They both say that on that same day he touched their genitals as well, according to the charges.
Olson told police that he played a "truth or dare game" with the two girls and that they dared him to pull down his pants, the charges said.
Olson was booked into the Salt Lake County Jail on Wednesday. His bail has been set at $150,000.
