A daycare worker inflicted painful sexual assaults on a little girl during nap time, police say.
Timothy McCrary’s alleged attacks on one of the youngsters emerged while she was being bathed by her mother.
The child told her mother not to touch her privates, and said that McCrary ‘rubs lotion on her there daily during nap time at school,’ according to police records.
Court papers seen by WDEL added: ‘(The victim) had advised it hurt and happened on several occasions.’
McCrary, 27, reportedly targeted the girl and his other victim while working at Telamon Head Start in Harrington, Delaware.
He got a job there as a janitor, before becoming a bus aide, and then a classroom aide who helped teachers when they needed a break, or during nap time.
McCrary was arrested on June 21, a month after being fired from the job when the sex abuse allegations first emerged.
His attacks are said to have been captured on surveillance camera.
One officer who watched the tapes claims McCrary waited for another teacher to leave the room before beginning one of his assaults.
His report said: ‘I watched him look to his right to find out where she went and once he noticed that she was at the other end of the classroom, he then slid his hand under (victim two’s) blanket and saw his hand moving around.’
McCrary is said to have removed his hand from under the blanket after the teacher returned.
The child he is accused of molesting was seen pulling her blanket back up over herself.
He reportedly attacked his second victim eight times in the space of an hour while she slept.
