GUILFORD COUNTY, N.C. (WTVD) – State Representative Cecil Brockman is facing charges of taking indecent liberties with a child and statutory rape, according to court documents.
Brockman was arrested by the Guilford County Sheriff's Office and booked into the county jail in High Point.
He is expected in court today.
The two charges Brockman faces are taking indecent liberties with a child and statutory rape of a minor who is 15 years old or younger.
Brockman, a Democrat, is currently serving his sixth term in the N.C. House of Representatives.
"The allegations against Rep. Brockman are serious and, if true, would disqualify him from public office," House Minority Leader Robert Reives, a Chatham County Democrat, said in a statement Thursday morning, according to our newsgathering partners at the News & Observer.
