The following is based on your complainant’s review of the reports of other officers and your complainant’s own investigation: On May 19, 2026, at about 4:30pm, Roseville Police responded to the New Perspective Senior Living facility, [ADDRESS REDACTED]., Roseville, Ramsey County on a report of criminal sexual conduct. On arrival, officers met with two women whose mother, 98-year old CFB ([DOB REDACTED]), is a resident of the facility. One of the daughters said that she had received a motion alert from a camera in CFB’s room and then twice saw on video a man standing over her mother and fondling her mother’s breast, once over her shirt and once under it.
She said that she recognized the man as the defendant, LAWRENCE ARTHUR KELVIE, JR. ([DOB REDACTED]), a unit neighbor of her mother. The other daughter said that she happened to be en route to the facility at the time. She said that when she arrived in the room, she observed the defendant standing over CFB. She said that she began to question him, and he walked out. She said that her mother then told her that she (her mother) had felt “trapped,” asked what she had done wrong, and requested to leave with her.
Surveillance video was recovered. It shows the defendant standing over CFB then manipulating her sweater over her chest. A minute later, he can be seen briefly rubbing and squeezing her breast over her clothing. He then lifts her shirt to expose her stomach, reaches his hand up, and again rubs her breast, this time under her clothing. As he does so, she reaches for the phone beside her chair and removes the handset from the base. Facility staff told officers that CFB is on hospice, with a diagnosis of dementia and “senile degeneration of the brain.” The nursing director stated that she would not be capable of consenting to sexual conduct.
By contrast, facility staff told officers that the defendant is cognitively intact, with no memory issues. The defendant was taken into custody. He declined to make a statement. A DNA sample was obtained from his hands, with his consent. In a follow up statement, the nursing director provided more information about CFB: “[S]he is unable to make anything but her most basic needs known… She is wheelchair bound, and unable to propel herself or reposition herself in the chair. She requires full assistance for every aspect of her daily life… We have to regularly check on her, throughout the day and night, because she is unable to summon help.
She is only oriented to herself. She doesn’t know where she is, or why she is there. She doesn’t know what year / time it is… She is completely dependent, in all aspects of life. The nursing director also noted out that CFB has “incredibly high anxiety, and is typically very guarded to touch, screaming and calling out.
