Roosevelt Man Faces Two Child Sex Assault Charges<\/h2>\n

Roosevelt (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>)<\/strong> \u2014 A Roosevelt man faces two felony charges involving allegations of sexual contact with a child.<\/p>\n

Jacob Oliver Patrick Jones, 38, is charged in Roseau County District Court.<\/p>\n

Both counts allege first-degree criminal sexual conduct, according to the criminal complaint.<\/p>\n

The alleged conduct occurred between August 22 and August 24, 2026, in Roseau County.<\/p>\n

The case is filed under court number 68-CR-26-511.<\/p>\n

Two First-Degree Charges Filed<\/h2>\n

The first count alleges sexual penetration or contact involving a child under age 14.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors also allege Jones was more than 36 months older than the child.<\/p>\n

The second count alleges multiple acts involving a child under age 16 and a significant relationship.<\/p>\n

That count alleges the abuse involved multiple acts over an extended period.<\/p>\n

Each felony carries a maximum sentence of 30 years in prison and a $40,000 fine.<\/p>\n

The complaint also lists a 144-month mandatory minimum prison term for the second count.<\/p>\n

Investigation Began After Report<\/h2>\n

According to the complaint, Roseau County authorities received a report on August 27.<\/p>\n

The child’s family met with investigators away from the residence where Jones allegedly lived.<\/p>\n

Family members reported concerns after the child complained of pain and later disclosed alleged inappropriate contact.<\/p>\n

Investigators arranged a forensic interview through Roseau County Social Services.<\/p>\n

During that interview, the child described alleged sexual contact involving Jones, according to the complaint.<\/p>\n

The child also alleged similar conduct had occurred previously while the family lived outside Minnesota.<\/p>\n

The Minnesota charges concern the alleged conduct that prosecutors say occurred in Roseau County during August 2026.<\/p>\n

Case Filed By Warrant<\/h2>\n

The complaint was filed with a warrant in Minnesota’s Ninth Judicial District.<\/p>\n

The charges are brought under Minnesota Statute 609.342<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The statute covers first-degree criminal sexual conduct under several circumstances involving minors.<\/p>\n

Additional court information is available through the Minnesota Judicial Branch<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A criminal complaint contains allegations and does not establish guilt.<\/p>\n

Jones is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.<\/p>\n
