Neil Edwards - Repeat Sex Offender


A child molester recently released from prison was arrested Monday on suspicion of sexually assaulting a mentally retarded man.

Neil Edwards, 66, befriended the man last Friday and brought him to Edwards' Peeples Valley home, where he proceeded to sexually abuse him, Yavapai County sheriff's detectives said.

Detectives said the victim went home and reported the abuse to his mother, who notified authorities.

Edwards was booked into the Yavapai County Jail on three counts of sexual assault and six counts of vulnerable adult abuse.
