Tennessee Couple Charged with Incest, Child Rape

(John Henley and Dava Henley: Tipton County Sheriff's Office)

A couple from Tennessee has been arrested on charges related to 8 counts of child rape, sexual battery and incest. 

John Henley, 70, and Dava Henley, 69, of Memphis are both being charged with the crimes that occurred between 2002 and 2009.  

The couple allegedly forced a young boy to engage in sexual activity with a young girl, who were both reportedly family members. 

A relative said he learned of the abuse two years ago from the victims' mother and that the sheriff's office had previous reports of child abuse from the home in 2017. 

"This should have been put to a stop a long time ago. To keep the kids in that kind of atmosphere, something should have been done," the relative said.

The couple was taken into custody on Wednesday.
