David Stodghill was captured in the Los Angeles area Monday night, the Shippensburg Sentinel is reporting.
Last Friday, Stodghill "was not located when Los Angeles police, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents and federal marshals descended on a Caheunga Boulevard residence in the city."
From yesterday's Shippensburg Sentinel:
Quote:
Sgt. Jonathan Mays of state police at Carlisle said the warrant was the response to criminal charges filed earlier in the day before Magisterial District Judge Harold Bender in Shippensburg. He is charged with indecent assault, aggravated indecent assault and corruption of minors.
According to the criminal complaint, Stodghill violated the 12-year-old at his room in a Shippensburg rooming house in June 2009.
According to the complaint, the girl told police and child authorities that Stodghill took her clothing and towel while she showered, then photographed her nude when she left the bathroom to retrieve her belongs.
Afterward, she told police Stodghill engaged in illegal physical contact with her.

According to a criminal docket dated January 29th, 2010, David Manning Stodghill was charged with the following acts in Shippensburg, PA:
Aggravated Indecent Assault with a person under the age of 13, Indecent Assault with a person under the age of 13, and Corruption of Minors.
If convicted or he pleads guilty to either indecent assault charge, Stodghill would need to also register as a sex offender. (there is debate as to if Stodghill should already need to be registered as a sex offender based on previous convictions). The Aggravated Indecent Assault Charge would carry a five year minimum sentence.
