The Bexar County Sheriff's deputies arrested Bryce Chatland, 55, was charged with continuous sex abuse. He's accused of sexually assaulting the two girls ( ages 13 and 15) for the last seven years.

The 15-year-old told investigators on June 7 that Chatland began abusing her when she was seven, making her engage in sexual acts, including one that she described as "gross." The 13-year-old said Chatland continued to try and convince her do to "stuff with him"

Both claim that he tried to record them in the restroom. The mother of both juveniles, who reported the offense to both the Department of Family and Protective Services and the sheriff's office, gave investigators data storage devices that she believe may contain inappropriate images of her daughters.
