Y&R alum Corey Sligh arrested for child molestation -- AGAIN

Corey Sligh, who appeared briefly on The Young and the Restless, had been arrested once again for child molestation.

Former actor and model Corey Sligh, who briefly appeared in a recurring capacity as a waiter on The Young and the Restless, has once again been arrested for child molestation. This is the second arrest connected to a crime reported in September of this year.

Less than two months after his first arrest in his home state of Georgia, Sligh is facing the same accusations in neighboring state Florida.

Walton County Sheriff's Office jail records show that the 29-year-old was arrested on an active felony warrant in DeFuniak Springs and was booked on Sunday, November 27, for one count of lewd and lascivious molestation on a juvenile younger than 12 years old. The report alleges the molestation incident took place in Walton County, Florida.

Sligh, who gave a Canton, Georgia, address, reportedly posted $100,000 cash bond on Monday, November 28.

As Soap Central previously reported, the victim of Sligh's reported molestation was under the age of 10 at the time of the incident and was "known" to the actor.

After the first arrest, Sligh told TMZ, "I am innocent and fighting this until the end, and the truth will prevail."

What do you think about Sligh being arrested in Florida for the same crime he was already arrested for in his home state of Georgia?
