Level 3 sex offender: James Long
YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) - The Yuma County Sheriff's Office (YCSO) has issued a notification regarding a Level 3 sex offender in the Yuma community.
YCSO says 42-year-old James Long told them he was residing in the area of E. 52nd Street, near S. El Camino del Diablo, in Yuma County.
Long is described by YCSO as five-feet, 11-inches tall, weighing 265 pounds, has black hair and brown eyes, and is not wanted by YCSO at this time.
In June of 2005, YCSO says Long pleaded guilty to two counts of sexual conduct with a minor in the Yuma County Superior Court.
He was then sentenced to serve three years of supervised probation. However, in December of 2005, Long was found in violation of the conditions of his probation, leading him to be sentenced to serve one year at the Arizona Department of Corrections, with credit for 145 days served.
In November of 2013, Long pleaded guilty to one count of failure to register as a sex offender in the Yuma County Superior Court, and was sentenced to serve one year at the Arizona Department of Corrections, with credit for 42 days served.
Long is considered by YCSO as a Level 3 sex offender with a high risk to reoffend.
