WOODLAND — A Davis man pleaded not guilty Thursday to allegations that he molested a developmentally disabled teenage boy inside a local library bathroom.
Dennis Lee Azevedo, 59, is due back in court June 30 for a preliminary hearing. In the meantime, he remains in Yolo County Jail custody in lieu of $1.65 million bail.
Azevedo is charged with seven counts each of forcible oral copulation on a minor and sodomy of a minor by use of force, along with allegations that the acts were committed upon a mentally, developmentally or physically disabled person.
Prosecutors say the alleged acts occurred between June 2015 and late April of this year inside the bathroom of the Stephens Branch Library, 315 W. 14th St. Davis police disclosed the incidents on April 29 and arrested Azevedo the following day.
