(Stillwater, Okla.) — A 49-year-old man, who was ordered to register for life as a sex offender after being convicted of indecent solicitation of a child in Cowley County, Kansas, in 1995, has been charged in Payne County with failing to notify Oklahoma authorities at least three days before moving from a Stillwater hotel at which he had been registered.
Mark Alan Webb II of Stillwater has been ordered jailed pending a Dec. 17 court appearance on a charge of violating the Sex Offender Registration Act after a 2018 conviction of possessing marijuana with intent to distribute in Payne County in 2015.
Webb, who has a 29-year criminal record in Oklahoma, was arrested by Stillwater Police Detective Josh Carson on Oct. 23 at the request of Payne County Drug Court Director Noel Bagwell for having missed a mandatory urine test, an affidavit alleged.
“An undisclosed Drug Court client had just observed Mark, and he was highly intoxicated,” an affidavit alleged. “Mark stated he had been drinking. I explained to Mark he violated his Drug Court conditions and placed him under arrest,” the Stillwater police detective alleged in his affidavit.
“Part of Mark’s sentencing (in Kansas) includes a lifetime sex offender registration, and he must register every 90 days,” the affidavit said.
He had listed a Stillwater hotel as his address in June and August, but he “never registered again and was trespassed from the hotel and not to be on hotel property. When Mark was booked today for his Drug Court sanction, he provided the Payne County Jail with the address,” of the same hotel, the affidavit alleged.
“Mark has failed to provide a current or correct address to the Stillwater Police Department as part of his registry conditions,” the affidavit alleged.
According to court records and the Oklahoma Department of Corrections, Webb had been released from prison in 2019 after being incarcerated for about eight months as a condition of his 2018 conviction for possessing marijuana with intent to distribute in 2015 in Payne County, followed by probation for about seven years.
Webb had also been convicted in 2004 in Kay County of two separate drug charges and two separate charges of omitting to provide for a child, for which he was given four concurrent 12-year probationary sentences, DOC records show.
Webb had also been convicted in 1997 in Kay County of second-degree forgery and receiving cash or property with a stolen credit card, for which he served about half of a sentence of two years and four months, DOC records show. Webb had also been convicted in 1995 in Kay County of pointing a firearm for which he was placed on probation for five years, DOC records show.
