Corey Sligh, Ex-Young and the Restless Star, Convicted of Child Molestation

Corey Sligh, an actor who formerly worked as an extra on soap operas such as The Young and the Restless, All My Children and Days of Our Lives, has been found guilty of molesting a young girl in Georgia.


According to local news outlet The Cherokee Tribune, the 30-year old was found guilty on June 28 of inappropriately and illegally touching a child younger than 10 years old.



The actor and model also is also awaiting trial on similar case in Florida.


Bill Bishop, chief assistant state attorney for Okaloosa County in Florida, says Singh faces one count of lewd and lascivious molestation, which carries a sentence of 25 years to life in prison if convicted.


For the current conviction, however, Sligh faces five to 20 years behind bars.


No sentencing date has been set for him just yet.


Sligh was arrested in his hometown of Canton, Georgia in November of 2016.


At the time, he was charged with the two counts after the parents of a young girl reported to authorities that the actor allegedly touched their daughter and forced her to touch him inappropriately.


The alleged incident took place in March of that same year and was reported to the police in September.



It is unclear just how many times Sligh allegedly molested his victim in Georgia.


“Corey Sligh maintains his innocence,” his lawyer told E! News, adding:


“The jury found him not guilty on Count 1. The jury compromised to guilty on Count 2 after deliberating for days and requesting to be hung and released from service.”


The part-time actor recurred on the aforementioned dramas as a waiter and a bartender.


However, Sligh is also known for an unusual, violent incident that made him a victim back in November of 2014.


In this instance, Sligh claimed that he and his girlfriend were randomly attacked while delivering Thanksgiving meals, resulting in serious injurites and hospital trip for the star.


This is a photo he shared of himself afterward:



Weeks after his Georgia arrest, meanwhile, Sligh was arrested and charged with one count of lewd and lascivious molestation stemming from another incident involving another girl under the age of 10.


Florida Police said her mother told authorities that her child said Sligh touched her inappropriately and forced her to touch him while they were vacationing in Rosemary Beach.


It was basically the same actions he was accused of  in Georgia.


“There is an allegation in Florida by the same person alleging the same conduct,” his attorney explains.


“The Florida evidence was presented in the Georgia trial to further bolster the State’s case. Corey had 30-50 family and friend supporters in court every day during the trial.


We, including his wife, stand behind him still. We hope that Corey’s exemplary reputation and character prior to this allegation will be considered in sentencing.


“The conviction will be appealed regardless of sentence.”


We’ll update this gross story with more details as they come in.

Corey Sligh, Ex-Young and Restless Star, Arrested For Child Molestation

Corey Sligh, an actor best known for his role on The Young and the Restless, has been arrested on charges of child molestation.


Be warned:


The details of these allegations are pretty heinous…



According to the Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office in Georgia, Sligh was busted last month after the parents of an unidentified child reported that at least one incident of molestation took place on September 24. 


TMZ claims this child was a female and was under 10 at the time of the illegal act.


Few other specifics are available at this time.


Based on legal documents obtained by TMZ, the alleged acts of molestation took place between April and September. It is unclear at the moment just many times Sligh is accused of molesting the young girl.


Here is his mugshot:



Deputies arrested the actor on October 14 and released him the same day on a $ 22,000 bond.


He is recurred on a handful of the aforementioned episodes as a waiter and a bartender, but Sligh is also known for an unusual, violent incident that made him a victim back in November of 2014.


As reported on The Hollywood Gossip, Sligh was attacked by two strangers in a parking lot a Rite Aid in West Hollywood at that time.


Speaking to The Wrap after being hospitalized with numerous injuries, Sligh said back then that he and his girlfriend were delivering Thanksgiving meals to friends who could not get time off work.


When they pulled up in front of a Rite-Aid, they saw one man behind a camera, filming another man who was driving like a maniac around the parking lot in a Mercedes.


After delivering his plate of turkey to his pal, Sligh claimed he told these guys to go elsewhere because they were scaring kids in the vicinity.


He said the man in the car then ran him over in response.



Doctors had to place screws in Sligh’s arm and he was confined to a wheelchair for awhile after this beatdown.


“It was pretty scary [being] on the hood of that car, but I’m happy to still be able to move my neck,” he told The Wrap nearly two years ago, adding:


“I’m happy to have the problem of relearning to walk instead of not being able to walk at all. I’m pretty blessed.”


We can’t imagine he’s thinking the same sort of thing now.
