Man arrested for having sex with 14-year-old girl

ISHPEMING, MI--   An Ishpeming man has been arrested on criminal sexual conduct charges.

City Police say Richard Keller, 25, was arrested Sunday on two counts of third-degree CSC.  A warrant was authorized by the Marquette County Prosecutor’s Office following an investigation into Keller allegedly having sex with a 14-year-old girl in 2014 and 2015. 

Each charge is punishable by up to 15 years in prison.

Keller was lodged in the Marquette County Jail but released on Monday after posting a bond of 10 percent of $50,000 on each count.

A preliminary exam is set for September 13 in Ishpeming District Court.  

Nicole was born near Detroit but has lived in the U.P. most of her life. She graduated from Marquette Senior High School and attended Michigan State and Northern Michigan Universities, graduating from NMU in 1993 with a degree in English.
