Local man charged with sodomy, theft

A Jefferson City man is facing two counts of statutory sodomy for having sexual intercourse with a girl under the age of 14.

Christopher Newby, 23, is also charged with second-degree burglary and felony stealing.

Court records show the incidents occurred between Nov. 1 and Dec. 1.

After being arrested, Newby admitted to having sex with the girl at a residence on Monroe Street.

The other incident occurred at an abandoned residence on East Capitol Avenue, which he broke into to gain entry.

Newby also admitted to taking a laptop computer from a friend and pawned it, using the money to buy K2, which he smoked with several people.

Newby has no permanent address and was found guilty of second-degree child molestation in July.
