The girls, who are now teens, reported to deputies that Somers molested them sometime between 2013 and 2015, VCSO said.
Deputies said they are asking members of the public to come forward if they were also victims, as Somers volunteered with the Catholic Charities of Central Florida in Melbourne, including with its emergency family services program. Somers also listed professional experience as a financial advisor for the organization.
