Linton Police arrested a convicted sex offender after learning he was allegedly hosting parties for teens, supplying them alcohol and watching them have sex with each other.
Police charged 43-year-old Vincent Tyrone "Caveman" Carter with sexual misconduct with a minor and child solicitation.
"We had an adult male who was a convicted sex offender, hosting parties for juveniles there at his residence," Linton Police Chief Troy Jerrell said.
Authorities arrested Carter, a convicted child molester, on charges stemming from the parties. Police said the parties inside a mobile home on Glenburn Road involved drinking, strip card games, pornography and more.
"We believe he was hosting the parties for juveniles who were having sexual relationships with other juveniles and alcoholic beverages were being consumed as well," Jerrell said.
The investigation is ongoing. Police believe at least 20 kids, ranging in age from 12 to 17, took part in the parties.
For now, police said they have no reports that Carter molested any of the partygoers.
"This is one of them cases that bothers everyone, us as well as the public. We're not going to tolerate this type of activity," Jerrell said.
Carter is being held on $18,500 bond in the Greene County Jail.
