Ralph Marcell Hough

Horry County police charged 32 year old Ralph Marcell Hough with criminal sexual conduct with a minor and performing a lewd act on a minor last summer.

Investigators said the acts occurred from January 2007 through June 2007, at Hough's Myrtle Beach apartment.
Prosecutors agreed to drop the CSC charges against Hough in exchange for a guilty plea to the lewd act charge, a plea that could have sent Hough to prison for up to 15 years.
Assistant Solicitor, Scott Graustein, told the court Hough confesses to investigators that he "simulated" oral sex acts on the boy, but Hough told investigators he never actually carried those acts out.
