Joseph Lee Anderson Jr. - Repeat Sex Offender - Pleads Guilty - Enhancement Dismissed


A Michigan City man who admitted he fondled a 9-year-old boy in Lake Station faces a 30-month prison sentence.

Joseph Lee Anderson Jr., who pleaded guilty to child solicitation, admitted he had been babysitting the child on Dec. 27 when the crime occurred.
Under terms of the plea agreement submitted to Lake Superior Court Judge Diane Ross Boswell, a child molesting charge punishable by a maximum eight-year prison sentence and a repeat sex offender enhancement will be dismissed at his Dec. 1 sentencing.
Anderson has a prior conviction in June 2006 in Newton County for vicarious sexual gratification.
