A Jerseyville man has been charged in an alleged grooming case in Jersey County. 40-year-old Leif Roady of the 200 block of West Prairie was denied pre-trial release after he was accused of grooming a 14-year-old and also sending explicit photos of himself to the child.
The alleged incidents took place last week when, according to prosecutors, Roady attempted to solicit, lure or entire the minor to his residence for sexual contact. They say the day after the contact, he sent the photos of himself to the teen.
The grooming charge is a felony, while the sending of the explicit photos is a misdemeanor. At a pre-trial hearing, a judge agreed that Roady should remain in custody until his first court appearance on January 27.
