Wow Newton County jail must be full with all the Pedophiles they have
been getting lately.
MIssouri Sex Offender Registry shows 222 registered sex offenders in Newton County.
That doesn't count all those offenders accused but not yet found guilty and ordered to be registered.
222 registered sex offenders. That's a lot!
It would be interesting to see how many registered sex offenders are currently in the Newton County Jail, or are locked up elsewhere. There has to be at least a few.
