Millbrook man facing child sex charges

A Millbrook man is facing charges involving the sexual assault of a child, police say.

Millbrook Police Chief P.K. Johnson says 18-year-old Dokata Hollinger of Millbrook is charged with three counts of rape in the first degree and sodomy in the first degree.

Hollinger is being held in the Elmore County Jail without bond, pending an Aniah’s Law hearing.

Johnson says they got the complaint last Thursday, March 6, and detained Hollinger at the scene.

“I am extremely limited with regard to specific information that I can disseminate regarding this case due to the age of the alleged victim,” Johnson said.  “Any time our department investigates a sexual assault complaint, our primary concern is for the victim’s well-being and their rights, particularly when that victim is a minor child.

“It is my understanding based on the circumstances of this case, our detectives have requested that an Aniah’s Law hearing be scheduled, at which time a judge will determine the alleged offender’s bond amount, or if bond may be denied in this case, which will be based on evidence presented to the court, as it pertains to this case.”
