'Extensive and horrific' allegations
A news release from Schmitt's office detailed some aspects of the allegations, citing felony information documents that collected "forensic interviews, statements and extensive documentation seized from the (Circle of Hope) property" during the course of its investigation.
The documents cited by the attorney general in Boyd Householder's case allege repeated incidents in which the man is accused of having oral sex and intercourse with a victim under the age of 17, as well as "several" incidents in which Boyd Householder placed one or more of his fingers in the victim’s vagina.
Physical abuse accusations in the felony charging documents included allegations about restraints that involved Boyd Householder pushing his knee into the backs of several victims, applying pressure to them via "certain pressure points," handcuffing or restraining victims’ hands and feet and forcing victims to hold the "push-up position."
