OH Man on Electronic Monitor Raped Teen:  An Ohio teen was held captive for months and raped by a sex offender on electronic monitoring for a 2014 abduction case.  Lisa Cornwell of the AP reports that 20-year-old Cody Lee Jackson came into contact with the 14-year-old girl on Facebook in February while he was on electronic monitoring for a 2014 case in which he held two females against their will.  Jackson arranged for a taxi to deliver the girl to him on several occasions to have sexual intercourse.  By March, he was holding her captive in his apartment and refusing to let her leave, setting stringent rules for her and punishing her physically.  Jackson reportedly complied with all conditions of his monitoring and had a 20-year-old woman take the teen out of the apartment when he was being visited by parole officers.  After entering a guilty plea for the abduction case, Jackson was taken off monitoring and fled to Utah before his sentencing in August.  The teen was returned safely to her family and Jackson was captured and returned to Ohio last weekend.  He faces federal charges of coercion and enticement of a minor to engage in illegal sexual activity and production of child pornography, and state charges of rape, kidnapping, unlawful sexual contact with a minor and interference with custody.

Illegal Alien Sexual Predator Might be Released into U.S.:  A Mexican-national in the U.S. illegally, who pleaded guilty on Wednesday to charges of secretly filming a woman in a Texas Walmart bathroom, might be released into the U.S. under President Obama's Priority Enforcement Program (PEP).  Bob Price of Breitbart reports that Jose Santos Argueta was arrested in February and sentenced Wednesday to 270 days in jail, but the 243 days he has already spent behind bars since his arrest will be credited toward his sentence, meaning he could be released as early as next month despite an immigrant hold placed on him by federal authorities.  The PEP program, dubbed "Catch and Release 2.0" by a Breitbart reporter, replaced a more aggressive congressionally-mandated program that governed how U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials dealt with criminal aliens. Texas sheriffs are concerned, stating that several people like Argueta have been released into American communities even after being turned over to federal authorities for deportation.

OK Halts all Executions until 2016:  Following the discovery that the incorrect drug was used to execute an inmate in January, Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt has agreed to delay all executions until 2016 when an investigation is completed.  The AP reports that a recent autopsy report revealed that the state used potassium acetate in the January execution of Charles Warner, contradicting a public statement that potassium chloride is the specified final drug in Oklahoma's three-drug lethal injection protocol.  The supplier that sent the potassium chloride instead of the potassium acetate says that the two drugs are "medically interchangeable" at the same quantity, though other pharmaceutical experts assert that potassium chloride is absorbed more quickly in the body and thus, more acetate would have to be administered to achieve the same effect.  A federal judge will need to approve the request made by AG Pruitt.
