Registered Sex Offender Facing New Charges

Registered Sex Offender Facing New Charges

New child sexual assault charges are filed for a Trempealeau County man already on the sex offender registry. 

Prosecutors say 57-year-old James Devenport was charged earlier this week, facing ten counts of sexual assault of a child.  Police say a now 36-year-old victim told them Devenport assaulted her hundreds of times before she turned 13, causing permanent damage.  The victim says the assaults only stopped when he was in prison for another sexual assault case. 

Devenport is currently incarcerated and is due in court for the new charges in September.
