A convicted level 3 sex offender is back behind bars, accused of exposing himself to two young girls in West Carthage.
West Carthage Police wrapped up a two-week investigation on Sunday with the arrest of 68 year old Gaylord Johnson of Lowville.
Johnson is accused of exposing himself to two girls, ages nine and ten. The incident happened June 7th in a parking lot at Franklin Place, police said.
Johnson was released from state prison in June 2007 after serving a 10 year sentence for rape and sexual abuse.
He had been arrested on 27 sex charges in 1997 for the rape of two girls, ages eight and nine.
A previous arrest, in 1990 had been for giving alcohol to three 14 year old girls, according to archives of The Watertown Daily Times.
Johnson is now charged with endangering the welfare of a child and public lewdness. He's in Jefferson County jail, with bail set at $2,500.
The state's sex offender registry lists Johnson as a violent sexual offender.
