MOUNT LEBANON, Pa. — (WPXI) – A nursing home worker in Mount Lebanon is charged with sexual assault for what police say he did with a resident there. Certified nurse assistant Solomon Rivers, 32, also known as Solomon Roberson, is charged with institutional sexual assault. According to the criminal complaint, a resident at Mount Lebanon Rehabilitation and Wellness told police he performed a sex act on Rivers in the bathroom of his room. Documents show the victim in this case has the mental capacity of a 7-year-old and is confined to a wheelchair. According to the complaint, Rivers was interviewed multiple times and admitted to what happened saying “it went too far.” The report also says Rivers told police he would no longer “pursue a job in the healthcare field.” It is unclear whether Rivers was fired from his position. Our news partners at WPXI reached out to management at the center over the phone and in-person. They were told no one there could speak and they would have to try another day.
