Child molesting, sexual battery, or battery based upon the different facts contained in your post. These would initially at least be in the juvenile court.

A variety of charges could be filed, depending on the exact facts and whether the nephew is charged as an adult or as a minor. You had best consult with a knowledgeable criminal law attorney in your area, and provide him with all of the details.
