Man Arrested in Connection with Old Sexual Assault Case
August 31, 2007 |
A 39-year old Greenville man has been charged with aggravated sexual assault of a child in connection with a Hopkins County case that has been lying dormant for the past 13 years. The alleged abuse began when the victim was 4. She is now 24 and wanted to know the status of her case. The DA’s office had no record but one was found in archives at the Sheriff’s Department. Criminal Investigator Lewis Tatum reinterviewed the victim and arrested a suspect. Jose Luis Maqueda is in jail under $100,000 bond. Tatum has no idea why the case was not submitted to the DA’s office back in 1994.
