The Cass County Sheriff’s Office says the charges against 55-year old Roger Allen Ericksen, of Underwood, stem from acts that allegedly happened with a minor child in 2011. Ericksen was taken to the Cass County Jail where he remains held on $25,000 cash bond. His preliminary hearing is set to take place 2-p.m., March 5th.

In December 2012, Ericksen pled guilty in a prior case in Cass County District Court to Sexual Abuse 3rd Degree.
