The Johnson County Sheriff’s Office has arrested a Coralville sex offender they say set up a social media account without informing them.
32-year-old Thomas Lindley of Coral Court has three convictions for 3rd Degree Sexual Abuse against a girl between the ages of 14 and 17 and one for Lascivious Acts With a Child against a girl under the age of 14. All four cases are from 2011 in Linn County.
Authorities say Lindley had been operating a social media account without their knowledge for about six-and-a-half-months. He is required to report such changes in his status within five days.
Lindley was booked into the Johnson County Jail just after 4:30 Friday morning and charged with a Sex Offender Registry Violation. If convicted, he could be sentenced to up to two years in jail.
