Baxter County Sheriff John Montgomery is notifying the public a registered sex offender has moved from Baxter County to Colorado. The offender had been designated as Risk Level 2. Risk Level 2 offenders are at moderate risk to re-offend, justifying community notification.
Sheriff Montgomery says 30-year-old Nicholas Acevez of 220 State Highway 101 North in Mountain Home has relocated to Eckert, Colorado.
Acevez was convicted of sexual indecency with a child in 2009. Documentation indicates the offense involved Acevez engaging in sexual contact with a 14-year-old female. Community notification is justified due to the young age of the victim at the time the crime occurred.
Acevez is not wanted by law enforcement. This notification is not intended to increase fear; rather it is the sheriff’s belief an informed public is a safer public. This information cannot be used to threaten, intimidate, or harass Registered Sex Offenders. Citizen abuse will not be tolerated. Such abuse could potentially end law enforcements ability to do community notification.
