"The victim in this case, who is now an adult, worked along with the investigators to obtain charges for offenses committed when they were a child ... It took a great deal of courage for this victim to come forward at this time." Kennedy then encouraged anyone who may have been a victim of Squires to contact the Violent Crimes Unit at (205) 464-8690. Have a news tip or suggestion on how I can improve Tuscaloosa Patch?
