LAFAYETTE, Ind. (WLFI) - A Lafayette man faces two felonies for failing to register as a sex offender.
According to court documents, 47-year-old Russell Crosby is charged with failure to register, failure to register while having a prior, unrelated conviction and being a habitual offender.
In April, Crosby was released from prison and signed a form saying he would be living on North Fourth Street in Lafayette. But officers said the address he gave doesn't exist.
A nearby resident told officers Crosby had stayed with him for a few days but left because he was unable to have people stay with him. Another man said Crosby stayed with him for a few weeks but said Crosby was removed and warned for trespassing.
Investigators say Crosby was convicted of sexual misconduct with a minor in 2005. He must register as a sex offender for ten years.
Crosby was previously convicted for failing to register as a sex offender in 2010.
