Florida doctor charged with sexual battery of teen boy says he was just 'cuddling'

VOLUSIA COUNTY, Fla. -- (WKMG) -- A Florida doctor is accused of raping a 15-year-old boy in DeBary, and Volusia County authorities are searching for other possible victims.

Alexander Ralys, 30, was staying with others Wednesday, including the victim, at his childhood friend's family home, according to the Volusia County Sheriff's Office arrest report.

Just before 2 a.m. Thursday, someone in the home called 911 to report they had walked in on Ralys molesting the victim, deputies said. The 911 caller said he kicked Ralys out of the home after he walked into the 15-year-old's bedroom and saw Ralys naked from the waist down on top of the victim.

The victim told detectives that when he woke up, his boxers were off and Ralys must have removed them. He also said Ralys sexually battered him and that this was not the first time it had happened, according to the report. Several months ago, the victim told authorities Ralys showed him porn and performed a sexual act on him.

Ralys told detectives he couldn't sleep and walked around the house, finding only the victim was awake. The suspect said he laid down in the bottom bunk next to the teen and all he did was cuddle with the victim, but at some point during the "cuddling" he was on top of the 15-year-old, according to the report.

Ralys said he has known the victim since he was 2 years old and denied sexually battering him, deputies said. Ralys is charged with sexual battery with physical form on a victim older than 12 years old. He was booked into the Volusia County Jail Thursday.
