The Sheriff’s Office said it began investigating Rowlinson last month after two people came forward to report alleged incidents from the summer of 2014, when both were less than 13 years old.
The accusations include claims that Rowlinson had sexual intercourse with one of the two while exposing the other to sexual contact.
“Further details of this case are being withheld to protect the victims,” said Livingston County Sheriff Thomas J. Dougherty.
The Dansville Police Department is credited with assisting the investigations.

A Detroit man accused of armed robbery and fleeing from police in late 2019 has been sentenced.
29-year-old Bryan James Busher was charged following the Christmas Eve 2019 incident at the Genoa Township Walmart. Authorities say Busher and another man had pushed out a shopping cart full of items without paying, and when confronted by an employee, Busher implied he had a gun. The pair then loaded the items into a van and drove away. A pursuit ensued until the van crashed at the Pleasant Valley Road entrance ramp on eastbound I-96, where Busher and the other suspect fled on foot into a nearby wooded area. Busher was arrested after being located by a drone.
