On Tuesday June 14, 2016 officers from the Chadron Police Department had contact with Tracy A. Castleberry age 42 formerly of Aurora, Nebraska. Officers conducted a records check on Castleberry and found him to be a registered sex offender from Aurora Nebraska. Officers determined that for a long period of time, Castleberry had not maintained contact/verification as required by the Nebraska Sex Offender Registration Act, had failed to report his temporary living location and that he had failed to report he was no longer living at his registered address in Hamilton County. Castleberry was subsequently arrested for five counts of violating the Nebraska Sex Offender Registration Act (Class IV Felony). He was transported to the Dawes County Jail where he was booked and lodged. Bond was set at 10% of 10,000. “We actively monitor and make sure any sex offender required to register according to the Nebraska Sex Offender Registration Act, is in compliance and will bring to bear our full attention to those that fail to comply with the law”, says Sgt. Jarvis Wallage.
The Chadron Police Department was assisted by the Nebraska State Patrol.
