MOULTRIE, Ga. — When police arrested a Moultrie man accused of having sex with an underage girl they also picked up his girlfriend, who police say hindered their work.

Keshon Ty’Kerrion Jones, 21, 601 Fourth St. S.W., was charged on Friday with enticing a child for indecent purposes, statutory rape and probation violation.

Police began investigating after the mother of a girl under 16 contacted police about an incident that occurred on Oct. 26 or 27.

“The mother reported the child was found at a residence with Keshon and another adult male and another juvenile girl,” Moultrie Police Department Sgt. Carly Davis said. “She said they had sexual intercourse — one with Keshon, one with the other male.”

Officers arrested Jones Friday at the 923 Fifth Ave. S.W. residence of Shakena Singletary, police Lt. Freddie Williams said.

“We had been over there several times trying to get him” and Singletary was misleading, Williams said. “She kept letting him come back.”

Singletary, 26, was charged with hindering the apprehension of a criminal.
