KINSTON -A 19-year-old Camp Lejeune Marine from Maryland has been charged with having sex with two 13-year-old Lenoir County girls.

Timothy Wayne Nealey, who is based at Camp Lejeune in Jacksonville, faces two counts of statutory rape. He was jailed in Lenoir County in lieu of a $100,000 bond. Information about Nealey's rank and unit was not immediately available.

Lenoir County sheriff's detectives say Nealey is charged with having sex with one of the victims at her house. The incident with the other victim occurred on a dirt road near Deep Run, detectives say.

Both incidents occurred in late July, investigators say.

Lenoir County Sheriff's Capt. Christopher Hill said the investigation began after the mother of one victims contacted authorities at Camp Lejeune.

Lejeune authorities then notified Lenoir County investigators, because both incidents occurred off base, Hill said.

Sheriff's Detective Wayne Dawson interviewed the 13-year-olds and other witnesses, and questioned Nealey this week at the brig at Camp Lejeune, officials say.

Hill said Nealey confessed to having sex with the two girls. Investigators believe Nealey was an acquaintance of the mother of one of the victims.
