MORGANTOWN — A 44-year-old man from Berkeley County man is charged with sexually abusing a relative in the time frame of 2002-2004.
Jason M. Shriver, of Hedgesville, is charged with four counts of sexual abuse by a parent, guardian or custodian, and one count of incest by the West Virginia State Police.
