Overview
- Michael Alan Bank, 58, was arrested Jan. 15 at his Aeroview Street home and arraigned Jan. 18 on three first-degree and one second-degree criminal sexual conduct charges involving a child under 13.
- Detectives say seized electronic devices produced a “multitude of evidence,” including images that appear to show Bank with children in compromised positions.
- Police believe there may be additional victims and released Bank’s booking photo, urging anyone with information to call West Bloomfield Township police at 248-975-8981.
- Bank is being held without bond at the Oakland County Jail, with a preliminary examination set for March 3 in 48th District Court.
- Investigators say the child’s mother hired Bank through Sittercity, and the platform stated it does not employ caregivers and encourages users to run up-to-date background checks.
