A former California Fire Captain is again in court confronted with another accusation of child sexual assault following the disclosure of a third victim last year. A total of 75 charges were previously filed against the captain two years ago.
In the summer of 2022, Peter Mock was apprehended in Shasta County and formally accused of 74 instances of sexual assault targeted at a minor. Several months following his apprehension, a second underage individual stepped forward alleging that Mock had subjected them to abuse, therefore introducing an additional accusation.
Law enforcement documents indicate that the mistreatment of one of the victims occurred over a period of 4 to 5 years.
Following his first detention without bond, Mock was subsequently granted bail in the amount of $250,000 and was released from jail in January 2023.
