The Jasper County Prosecuting Attorney's office filed a felony failure to register as a sex offender charge today against an Alba man.
A warrant was issued for the arrest of Michael Lee Gibbons (DOB 1977) after the Jasper County Sheriff's Office arrested Gibbons on an outstanding warrant and determined he had been living in Alba and Sarcoxie since November 1.
Gibbons, who was convicted of having "felony carnal knowledge" of a 15-year-old girl in Louisiana, lived in Jasper County before and was registered but left in 2020 to return to Louisiana, according to the probable cause statement.
Gibbons told the investigating officer he had been in Jasper County on "multiple occasions" since he left in 2020.
Officials with the Webster Parish Sheriff's Office said Gibbons had not complied with the sex offender registration law in Louisiana.
Bond was set at $2,500 cash or surety with the requirement that Gibbons registers before he posts bond.
