A man with previous legal issues involving sexual misconduct with minors is back in custody once again, after he allegedly fell for a social media decoy who he thought was a minor.
A serial sex offender is behind bars once again, and this time, the suspect was arrested after police say he fell for a social media decoy that he believed to be a minor.A concerned citizen confronted the suspect, 46-year-old James Swindle, on November 14. The confrontation happened in broad daylight, near Jefferson Street and the I-17."I wanna have a little chat with you. Are you James?" the person asked.
"As mentioned above, Swindle was released on Halloween, after he was arrested in July for failing to register as a sex offender. Swindle was released on the condition of electronic monitoring, and according to Raybourn, Swindle started messaging the fake minor just days after his release."He started right where he left off, sending images of himself. Graphic talk," Raybourn said.Court documents state that Swindle sent over 10 sexually explicit images and videos.
