Two boys were abused by an adult, then left in a Pontiac home alone, deputies report
A Pontiac man has been charged with child abuse over injuries suffered by two young boys, the Oakland County (Michigan) Sheriff's Office reported. Cedric Diequell-Stevens Moore, 38, was arraigned Sunday on charges of second- and fourth-degree child abuse and is being held in the Oakland County Jail on $100,000 bond. The charges result from circumstances Thursday night, in which the two children were left alone at a Pontiac home without an adult. One of them eventually walked to another home to get help, and that homeowner called deputies. Once officers arrived, they found multiple injuries on that child who said he had been beaten with a belt and struck with a broom handle by an adult who later left the house. The boy also explained there was a younger child still in the home. The older boy was taken to a hospital to receive treatment for his injuries and was listed in stable condition. In the meantime, younger child was found to have cigarette burns on his back and legs. He was turned over to the custody of a relative. Moore was arrested later that day.

Pontiac man accused of choking his son for falling asleep on a couch, sheriff says
A Pontiac man is accused of choking his 9-year-old son and throwing his infant son into a crib, the Oakland County Sheriff's Office alleges. Cedric Diequell-Stevens Moore, 38, was arraigned Sunday on second- and fourth-degree child abuse. He was given a $100,000 bond and is being held in the Oakland County Jail. The alleged abuse took place on the night of June 26 at Moore's home in the 100 block of South Edith Street in Pontiac. Deputies say Moore's 9-year-old son left the house to go to a store and went to a nearby home to get help. That homeowner called deputies. Deputies say the boy suffered several injuries, including "welts to his torso and severe abrasions to his right eye and around his neck." Moore's son allegedly told deputies that his dad was angry with him because he fell asleep on a couch. The boy told deputies that his father allegedly beat him with a belt on his back, legs, buttocks and face and hit him with a broom handle before choking the boy until he passed out. The boy told deputies that before he left for the store, Moore told him, "It's gonna happen all night." Deputies say the 9-year-old told them that his brother was crying because he was hungry and that Moore "threw" the infant into his crib. Moore was arrested later that night at a relative's home. Authorities say he told a relative he had been "whooping" his son for stealing." When deputies examined the 1-year-old, they reportedly found healed cigarette burns on his legs and back. The 9-year-old was taken to an area hospital, where he remains hospitalized in stable condition, the sheriff's office said. Child Protective Services has placed the 1-year-old, whose mother is currently incarcerated, according to authorities, with a relative. The mother of the 9-year-old does not live with Moore, according to officials. "One of the worst things we see is horrific abuse to children," said Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard in a statement. "It cannot be tolerated, and those responsible must be held fully accountable and their children protected."

Cedric's leadership arrives at a critical time, as credit unions seek new ways to empower their members with smarter lending solutions and meaningful financial relief. With over a decade of experience spanning investment banking, lending, and financial strategy, Moore brings both expertise and a human approach required to navigate today's complex lending environment.

His strategic insight, paired with his relationship-first mindset, makes him the ideal leader to deepen our engagement with credit unions and help their members thrive.' Tapping into a $1.7 Trillion Refinance Opportunity The U.S. auto lending market presents a massive opportunity, with outstanding loan balances totaling approximately $1.7 trillion.

'Despite a challenging market, there are strategies you can employ to ensure you don't get in over your head with an unaffordable auto loan.' (TransUnion).

'At iLending, we partner with credit unions to help make that possible, supporting their members while also strengthening loan portfolios with high-quality refinance volume.' Bridging Generations and Building Brand Relevance Moore recently attended the 2025 NACUSO Reimagine Conference, where he connected with credit union leaders nationwide to discuss strategies for reaching younger generations and enhancing brand messaging. The conversation centered on how credit unions can evolve their approach to meet the values, expectations, and communication styles of Millennials and Gen Z—while honoring their legacy and mission. 'Credit unions sit at the intersection of trust and community, but staying relevant across generations requires intentionality,' Moore added. 'Whether it's through better digital engagement or member-first messaging, our role is to help credit unions build bridges to every member demographic they serve.'
