YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) - Trial dates have been set for the case of a Yuma man accused of sexually abusing a child.

48-year-old Randall Medders is facing five counts of child molestation, five counts of child abuse and 10 counts of aggravated assault with sexual motivation.

The alleged abuse happened between 2021 and 2022.

Medders rejected the state's plea offer which would have sent him to prison for 17 years, putting him on lifetime probation and have him register as a sex offender since last September.

His trial is set to begin August 6 and is expected to last three weeks.
