A North Platte man is facing multiple felony charges after a deputy investigated a suspicious vehicle at Dodge Hill and found him in the company of two juveniles.
On January 23, 2019, at 2:10 a.m., a deputy checked a suspicious vehicle parked in the area of Dodge Hill, just south of North Platte.
The Deputy met with the three occupants of the vehicle and found two were young juveniles. The adult male was identified as 23-year-old Tristyn Jefferson and he was partially disrobed.
Jefferson was detained while the Deputy questioned the juveniles about being at the location with an adult male.
Jefferson was eventually arrested and taken to the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office for further questioning.
The Juveniles were placed into emergency protective custody.
After questioning, Jefferson was jailed and charged with 1st Degree Sexual Assault, Possession of Child Pornography and Contributing to the Delinquency of a Minor.
The case is still under investigation and additional charges may follow.
