According to West Virginia State Police TFC J.P. Murphy, Jr., James Edward Dowell, Jr., failed to inform the state police that he was no longer employed with Teays Valley Rental. That's a felony under West Virginia Law for sex offenders.
Dowell plead guilty February 8th to the crime before Putnam Circuit Judge O.C. "Hobby" Spaulding. He was represented by Winfield attorney David Moye.
Putnam County Assistant Prosecutor Tom Kirk says under the plea agreement he will not make any sentencing recommendations to Spaulding. Dowell's sentencing hearing is scheduled for March 21st at 8:30 a.m. in Winfield.
Dowell, 47, lives in Charleston. He was
convicted in 1995 of 1st Degree Sexual Abuse with a female family
member between 13-17 years old. He served approximately 3 years in a
correctional facility, according to the West Virginia State Police
Sex Offender Registry.
