Felonies

●  Shaun Tyler Nolty, 24, Spillville, Iowa, was charged June 11 with a Class C felony count of second-degree sexual assault of a child and a Class D felony count of child enticement, both as a repeat offender. A warrant is issued for his arrest. According to court records, Nolty engaged in sexual activity with a 15-year-old girl in rural Darlington on Feb. 2. He had picked her and a friend up at her house beforehand and driven them around Darlington. The girl’s father reported the encounter to police May 5. An investigation found Nolty and the girl had been communicating via Facebook Messenger and Snapchat since she was 13. The girl initially told police the sexual contact wasn’t consensual, then she said it was. When police interviewed Nolty, he appeared nervous and wasn’t initially forthcoming with information but soon “profusely apologized” and admitted to sexual contact with the girl. He was registered as a sex offender in Illinois in 2014 for a sex offense in Jo Daviess County involving a victim younger than 13.
