A 21-year-old man extradited to Carson City from California this week on felony sexual assault charges faces additional sexual assault charges, with a third victim who is 14, a Carson City sheriff's detective said Friday.
A charge of statutory sexual seduction and a sex crime related charge were made Friday against Jacob Daniel Houser involving another female victim, said Detective Sal Acosta. He's being held on $200,000 bail.
Houser was booked Wednesday into Carson City Jail on felony sexual assault charges involving minors ages 13 and 14. See the original story here. The new charges were added Friday.
Houser was arrested July 8 in Fresno, Calif., after a warrant for his arrest was issued July 7. He was extradited and returned Wednesday to Carson City. In the first two cases, Houser is accused of using social media to arrange a meeting with the girls, ages 14 and 13. He drove from Central Valley to Carson City, bringing alcohol with him. He allegedly had consensual sex with the 14-year-old girl and then allegedly raped the 13-year-old girl when she was passed out, Acosta said.
He was captured by police in Fresno. Five law enforcement agencies around California’s Central Valley were notified of the warrant and were instrumental in locating Houser, said Acosta.
The suspect is originally from Turlock and has lived in Carson City, Tennessee and in Oakdale, Calif. His biological mother lives in Carson City.
Acosta said Houser met the girls online where they agreed to meet with him. He told the girls that he drove several hours to Carson City from California to meet, supplied them alcohol and then had consensual sex with the 14-year-old girl and sexually assaulted the 13-year-old-girl.
In the first two cases, Houser faces felony charges of sexual assault with a victim under 14 and statutory sexual seduction that involved the 14-year-old girl, said Acosta.
