Phenix City Man Sentenced to 30 Months in Federal Prison for Failure to Register as a Sex Offender

Montgomery, Alabama – In a shocking turn of events, a Phenix City man has been sentenced to 30 months in federal prison for his role in failing to register as a sex offender.

Christopher Quinton Hearlson (36), a resident of Phenix City, Alabama, was sentenced to 30 months in federal prison for failure to register as a sex offender, announced George L. Beck, Jr., United States Attorney for the Middle District of Alabama.

According to court documents, in September of 2015, Hearlson was indicted by a federal grand jury for failure to register as a sex offender. It appears that when Hearlson moved to Russell county, he failed to register as required by law.

Chief United States District Judge W. Keith Watkins sentenced Hearlson to 30 months in federal prison to be followed by a ten year term of supervised release. Hearlson remains in the custody of the United States Marshals Service pending placement by the Bureau of Prisons.

The case was investigated by the United States Marshal’s Service. Assistant United States Attorney Hollie Worley prosecuted the case.

As a result of this conviction, the community can rest a little easier knowing that justice has been served. The people of Phenix City can now feel safer knowing that a sex offender who failed to register is behind bars.

Hearlson’s failure to register as a sex offender put the community at risk. It is a serious offense that can have devastating consequences. We are glad that he is facing the consequences of his actions.
