Texas Daycare Worker Accused of Child Sex

(McKinney, Texas) A 27-year-old day care worker at Stonebridge Academy, Kassi Cano, has been arrested for a 2008 child sex crime. Reportedly, the case languished until a new district attorney decided to pursue it.

Cano faces charges of aggravated sexual assault of a child under the age of 14, sexual assault to a child and indecency with a child by contact.

In 2009, Cano was arrested in Riesel in connection with the alleged use of a sexual device on a child and was charged with two counts of sexual assault to a child younger than 14.

According to a sworn affidavit submitted for an arrest warrant in February 2009, the victim identified the device from among several that Riesel police seized after executing a search warrant on Cano's residence.

The investigation started on Sept. 18, 2008, when a man took the girl to Providence Health Center after observing vaginal redness and inflammation while changing the youngster's diaper after picking her up.

Cano was booked into custody at the McLennan County Jail with bond set at $250,000.
