A retired Kern County Sheriff's deputy was arrested Thursday night in Seattle on five counts of lewd or lascivious acts with a child.
Mark Thomas Petrina also faces a count of continuous sexual abuse of a child, according to Kern County Superior Court records.
The charges were filed last month against Petrina, who was born in 1933, according to court records. Each count is listed as a felony. Two counts were for victims who were either ages 14 or 15, and three counts were for victims under the age of 14, court records show.
Petrina's alleged victims were relatives, according to a law enforcement source who spoke on condition of anonymity.
Petrina is scheduled for arraignment on Monday.
