James Roy Sibley, a 57 year old convicted sex offender, was arrested again for failing to meet requirements of Megan's Law. Megan's Law requires those convicted of a sexual abuse crime to register with authorities and advise local officials when they move into a new jurisdiction. Sibley was convicted of first-degree sexual abuse in 1995 and was released from prison in 1999 after serving nearly four years. The case involved three boys under the age of 10. He is charged with failure to register as a sex offender, a misdemeanor, and a sexual offender living within 2,000 feet of a school, which is a felony.
