A 26-year-old Galliano man is accused of sexual battery of a child under 10.

Lafourche Parish Sheriff’s Office juvenile detectives opened an investigation on Sept. 29 in reference to a complaint that a child had been molested by Jacob Dedon, 26, of Galliano.


Investigating detectives learned that Dedon allegedly had inappropriate sexual contact with a child under the age of 10, which led authorities to obtain a warrant for the suspect’s arrest.

On Oct. 17, Dedon turned himself in at the Lafourche Parish Detention Center in Thibodaux.

He was booked with sexual battery (forcible fondling). The suspect was released after posting a $75,000 bond. 


He has been ordered to stay away from the victim in the case.
