Newcomer has also been registered with the first name Jake.<\/a><\/p>\nNewcomer, in the time frame of the sexual assaults, was on electronic home monitoring with an ankle bracelet following a 30-month prison sentence for two counts of rape of a child from an April 2022 conviction following a guilty plea, according to the U.S. Department of Justice.<\/p>\n
According to King County court documents, King County prosecutors filed charges against Newcomer in July 2020 after a Black Diamond Police Department investigation found Newcomer, age 24 at the time, engaged in multiple instances of sexual intercourse with a 15-year-old girl.<\/p>\n
According to the federal complaint, Newcomer’s ankle monitor lost connection on Jan. 19, with corrections officers having found he left the residence when they arrived to arrest him.<\/p>\n
According to the Department of Justice, between February and April 2024, Newcomer connected with the teenagers — ranging in age from 14- to 16-years-old — through Snapchat, a social media platform, and arranged in-person meetings where he provided the teenagers drugs and alcohol and sexually assaulted them.<\/p>\n
Multiple local and federal agencies including the Auburn Police Department, Snoqualmie Police Department, Kent Police Department, FBI, Oregon Police Department, and more continue investigation into the case.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
