Sexual Assault Arrest
On Friday, February 10th., 2023, St. Louis County Sheriff’s Office Investigators arrested 48 year old CLINT MASSIE, of Grand Lake Township, on four counts of 2nd-degree criminal sexual conduct. MASSIE was lodged at the St. Louis County Jail and was arraigned on 02/14/23.
This investigation started several weeks ago after an adult female victim came forward. She reported sexual abuse by MASSIE when she was a young child. As the investigation continued, additional victims were identified who also disclosed sexual abuse involving MASSIE when they were children. These incidents occurred at multiple locations, including MASSIE’s farm in Lakewood Township.
At this point, it is believed there are other victims of sexual abuse by MASSIE that have yet to come forward. The Sheriff’s Office encourages anyone with related information to call 911 or the Criminal Investigations Division general line at 218-336-4350.
The Sheriff’s Office would also like to provide additional information to the general public. If you, or someone you know, has been or is currently being sexually abused, please call 911 immediately or reach out to a local advocacy organization, such as PAVSA (Program for Aid to Victims of Sexual Assault) at 218-726-1931 or First Witness Child Advocacy Center at 218-727-8353. If you live in the northern part of St. Louis County, you can also contact the Sexual Assault program there at 218-749-4725.
