Robert Wesley Henry III, Failing to Register as a Sex Offender, Idaho 2017
BOISE – Robert Wesley Henry, III, 38, of Boise, Idaho, has pleaded guilty to failing to register as a sex offender, according to Acting U.S. Attorney Rafael Gonzalez.
Henry was indicted by a Boise grand jury on January 10, 2017, and the case was investigated by the United States Marshals Service (USMS) and the Garden City Police Department.
According to the plea agreement, Henry was convicted of possession of sexually explicit images of minors in July 2011. As a result of this conviction, Henry is required to register as a sex offender under the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (SORNA).
Henry was released from the Federal Bureau of Prisons on August 13, 2014, and began serving a ten-year period of supervised release. Henry last registered as a sex offender with the State of Idaho on November 3, 2016; however, the address he listed at that time was not where he was living.
From October 31, 2016, through December 9, 2016, Henry’s probation officer attempted to contact Henry at the address he listed, but he failed to update his sex offender registration with his new address. Henry admitted that he knowingly failed to update his address as required under SORNA.
The guilty plea was accepted by U.S. District Judge B. Lynn Winmill, who scheduled sentencing for April 28, 2017. Henry faces up to 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
The case is a reminder that failing to register as a sex offender can have serious consequences. The public has a right to know about individuals who have been convicted of sex crimes, and it is the responsibility of those who have been convicted to comply with the law.
