A defendant pleaded guilty July 6 to GPS tampering for failing to charge his GPS monitoring device.
On Sept. 16, 2016, Joshua Clark was sentenced to a little more than three years for first-degree child sex abuse. He was also required to complete three years of supervised release after serving his sentence. As a condition of his release, Clark was required to wear a GPS monitoring device, which was installed on Oct. 25, 2019.
However, the defendant intentionally failed to charge his device on Nov. 13, 2019. He was charged with tampering with a detection device on Jan. 31. He has been held in jail since then.
DC Superior Court Judge James Crowell sentenced Clark to time served.
