UPDATE @ 6 p.m. Wednesday

KANAWHA COUNTY, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- West Virginia State Police troopers say a 59-year-old man was trying to seduce teenage girls in Belle, and the girls caught it all on tape.

Officers arrested David Kay, who was silent Wednesday as he walked into Kanawha County Magistrate Court. He did not respond to accusations that he preyed on his teenage neighbor and her two friends.

Kay faces four counts of intent to seduce a minor and indecent exposure charges, which carry a penalty of up to 10 years imprisonment.

According to the criminal complaint, while the teenagers were in a trailer in Belle they saw Kay standing in the doorway of his trailer, motioning for the girls to come over. Then, he later unfolded a blanket and motioned for them to come over again. After that, police said Kay pulled down his pants and exposed his self.

Troopers said one of the girls recorded Kay's every move.

"She used her head … and did a very smart thing," said Trooper J.M. Comer. "It really helped corroborate her story."

Troopers said this is not the first time Kay crossed the line. His neighbor claims Kay did it before when she was 12, but said she was too afraid to say anything. Years later, she came forward. Police said there could be other victims also trying to find their voice.

In addition to exposing himself, Kay allegedly made inappropriate gestures, according to troopers. At the time of the alleged incident, police said Kay, who has a wife and children, was home alone. His family was out of town.


ORIGINAL STORY
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- A man from Belle is accused of exposing himself to several teenage girls.

The alleged incident happened on Saturday, August 16, along Simmons Creek Road.

According to the criminal complaint, the teenagers were playing in their bedroom when David Roy Kay came out of his house and made a bed with a blanket and motioned for them to come over to his house.

State Police say that's when Kay pulled down his pants and exposed himself. The teens also told investigators Kay made sexual gestures at them.

The teenagers taped Kay's actions and later called police.

Kay is now charged with indecent exposure and use of obscene matter with intent to seduce a minor. He was arraigned on the charges around 12:30pm Wednesday.

Bond was set at $75,000.

His next court appearance is set for September 3 at 1:30 p.m.

People like this get away with it the first time and keep adding kids to there list. How many other kids are they ? how many years does this go back? If there is other kids they need to come forward and put this person where he needs to be . We had a neighbor that was like this and he was classified as the crazy man that everyone avoided . Why must kids live that way ??? lock them all up!

All parents should look at anyone they see as a potential sexual predator. Never fall for that he’s a nice guy or girl and goes to church crap no one really knows anybody.

ten year for showing his wee wee but the Dr. who was in charge of the child neglect charges got home confinement. Sad. These girls were very brave and smart. I think he deserves the time, he will get his in prison.

I am very proud of these girls. I wish i had been that brave when i was a child, we had a neighbor who would expose himself to me and my friend while we played in the backyard, we were both ten at the time. Parents need to open the lines of communication with their children and help them be brave as well.

OHMY I agree with your post. If he's doing this where others can see, what has he done to children behind closed doors? There's no rehabilitating a person like this. They just get worse and more daring each time until they end up killing a kid. Take no chances on this, lock him up for life. Take a look at SC. You can get the death penalty for sexually abusing a child under the age of 13 (should be even older)! Pedophilles are one of the WORST kind of criminal and they don't get better with treatment. What about the kids that have been victims? They live with the nightmare for the rest of their lives. We all need to teach our kids to be brave enough to tell when ANYONE makes them feel uncomfortable. I'm proud of the girls that made sure this monster was caught. Great job girls!

I am so proud of those girls - they are brave and hopefully are role models for others to stand up against your abuser. You go girls!!

Posted by: ohmy on Aug 28, 2008 at 01:06 AM
can you even think of the nightmares these poor girls will have for the rest of their life.. It makes you wonder if he done this to his own kids or his grandchildren when no one was looking.i hope the family really search inside them and find away to honestly think about the kids in the family and see if he has done anything to them.. and making fun of him done what for you people the man needs and needed help what if he done this to your family..

Treatment? YOu think he can be rehabilitated? 90% reoffend after coming out of prison. Would you let your child with him? I would never in this lifetime. He should be put on anisland with the rest of them!
