Sweet Home Police on Nov. 18 arrested a Sweet Home man for sex crimes involving a 6-year-old girl.
Walter Wesley Windom, 57, was charged with first-degree sodomy and first-degree sex abuse in an incident involving a 6-year-old female who is not related to Windom. He also was charged with furnishing obscene material to a minor in a case involving a 15-year-old male who is not related to Windom.
Windom was lodged at Linn County Jail.
Police have forwarded additional information, potentially involving more victims, to the District Attorney’s Office for review and possible additional charges, Police Chief Bob Burford said. The investigation is continuing.
Windom, of 2424 Main St., Starlite Apartments, was a registered sex offender, although he was not designated “predatory,” so there were no restrictions on his living arrangements or a notification process when he moved in.
