A Granite Shoals man was arrested Monday, June 12, on 16 counts of Sexual Assault of a Child, all alleged to have been committed against a single victim.
Offenses cited in the arrest of Jackie Lee Lett, 47, are alleged to have taken place from January through May this year.
Earlier this week, officers from the Granite Shoals Police Department (GSPD) received notice from the Department of Family and Protective Services (DFPS) regarding the allegations of sexual assault that occurred at a residence in the city, according to a statement released by GSPD Chief Gary Boshears.
“With the assistance of DFPS and the Hill Country Children’s Advocacy Center, investigators gained sufficient evidence to seek arrest warrants against the suspect,” said Boshears. “Upon review of the evidence, City of Granite Shoals Municipal Court Judge Frank Reilly issued arrest warrants.”
