A 30-year-old Clinton man, who was charged with four counts of taking indecent liberties with a minor earlier this month, now is facing additional charges, this time from investigators at the Surf City Police Department.

Detective Claxton from the department issued the complaint and subsequent warrant against Paul Mitchell Autry, 30, of 1086 Barker Road, Clinton, for “indecent liberties with a child” on Aug. 19.

Sampson County Sheriff’s deputies served the warrant on Autry Wednesday. He is already being held in the Sampson County Detention Center after being charged with four counts of taking indecent liberties with a minor after an investigation that was initiated on Sunday, Aug. 9. He was arrested on Aug. 11 and placed under a $375,000 bond.

Reports show those four charges were filed after a juvenile female reportedly confided in a friend that she had been sexually assaulted by Autry in the past when she spent the night with a juvenile friend.

Investigators identified three additional juveniles who alleged that they had been fondled by Autry on several occasions and in different locations. Based on interviews conducted, investigators did not believe that full sexual intercourse occurred between the suspect and the victims. Through consultation with the District Attorney’s office, it was recommended that Autry be charged with indecent liberties with a minor and an investigation to determine if additional charges will be warranted was to continue.

Since the arrest, the Sampson County Sheriff’s Office has been coordinating investigations with law enforcement agencies from Duplin and Pender counties, where it is believed that additional sexually oriented acts on minors occurred.

The charge from the Surf City Police Department is the first one against Autry beyond Sampson County and comes with a $25,000 bond and a trail date of Sept. 4.

Prior to his arrest, Autry was serving a probationary sentence for two felony larcenies that occurred in 2005. Officials with the N.C. Department of Community Corrections assisted with the investigation and are initiating legal proceedings against Autry as well.

If you would read my first posting, you would see I was right on track with this article. However, I said somethings in it that offended you and you have no rebuttle. So, like the rest of the sheep in this area, you rather be denial or just avoid the subject all together. The easy road for you and others is to say " I don't like what you said". Get over it. That old song is played out.

I rather be number one than number two. So, thank you for recognizing my special talents. The next one who comments on here to bash me because they don't like what I say are the same ones who defend child molesters.

I am so sorry I couldn't get back to you sooner ho but I had to go out of town. It has to be difficult finding time to post while working two jobs. Maybe an education would have cut down on the number of hours you spend making someone else money and you could spend that time with your family instead. I am truly sorry you have to work so hard. It's a shame you don't have time to enjoy living life to the fullest. There's no wonder you are so bitter. Now that I know more about your situation I won't be so hard on you. Please accept my apology. Would you like some cans? I have a few bags to spare. LMAO

$$30ho$$moneyfomyrent, you're give christians, and healthcare professionals a bad reputation on this comment page. I don't know if it is anger, or just plain ignorance that makes you do this, but you need to watch yourself. It's people like you that make others turn from churches AND doctors office. I know that if I were being treated at your place of employment, I'd take my chances with it running it's course. If I were going to your church, I'd go back to satan. I don't know where you came from riding that "high horse" of yours, but maybe you should put it back in the stable. If you are the christian and educated hard working woman you claim to be, don't let their comments get to you. If you are letting them, then maybe you should stay off the site.

It must be tough that you two live everyday to post comments on the SI and more than likely well uneducated.As for me I do work and yes I do have a part time job working at the hospital and a fulltime job working in a doctors office.Wonder if you could say the same.I work like that so I can enjoy many of the adventures life has to offer us unlike the two of you.I bet you two have a job looking out the windows to see who is coming down junkyard lane.I would hate for you two to be my parents or grandparents for that matter.Lafus Strumpetus you must not be giving your man everything he needs in bed or he would not be on here looking to have threesome's with other folks.So I guess you are not good at any kind of job.Those cans may come in handy for you my dear that is unless you get enough of my tax money to get you through all month living in the low income housing.Well have a good day doing nothing because my family and I are going shopping at the mall.We sure love our life not having to shop at "Dollar General","Family Dollar",and "Dollar Tree".Maybe you two can get together with JAFS and his Strumpet and have a foursome.

Oh I really am this "dumb". Thanks for pointing out the obvious. I have to admit the reference you made about being a God fearing Christian was quite comical. Your ability to mix religious tones and street gutter vernacular is so typical to this region. Let's look at some of your greatest moments.

$$30ho$$moneyfomyrent: Maybe there is a job on junkyardlane where you live like clean the shit up.

$$30ho$$moneyfomyrent: DON'T LET IT TAKE YOU ALL DAY TO COME UP WITH SOMETHING ELSE AS LAME AS YOUR LAST COMMENT.HAVE A BLESSED DAY.

$$30ho$$moneyfomyrent : Look in the SI I mean damn you are always on here posting rude comments to innocent people's families and talking trash.

I wish I could be as worldly and cultured as you one day. Have a blessed day and I will pray for you.

When you get mad because you do not like what I have typed maybe you will go break your moms arm or write a few bad checks on her.

LOL Everyone knows you're a woman because there isn't a man alive who would spend so much time and effort being so catty. Funny thing you say everyone else needs a life yet here's your comment....

Second off,if you have read all the other comments you would see why my name is what it is.

Does that sound like someone who has a life of her own? Keep commenting....the more you write the more your true colors show.
« lafus_crickamus wrote on Saturday, Aug 29 at 07:35 PM »
can any of you God fearing Christians tell what is God's address? I have looked through the Job Book in the Bible and I can't find it any where.

By the way, ho, if you're with the white first baptist church, can you tell me if your congregation is still racist against the black first baptist church down the street?
« $$30ho$$moneyfomyrent wrote on Saturday, Aug 29 at 02:21 PM »
First of all,how do you know that I am a woman?I am very satisfied with my life and my JOB.Second off,if you have read all the other comments you would see why my name is what it is.I don't need you to apologize for anything that has to do with me or my life because you do not know nothing about me or the life I live.I can write what I want and I do go to church and you would know that you "come to church as you are" if you went to church.

Do you go to "ONLINE SCHOOL" or "ARE YOU A MEMBER OF THE WHITE FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH"?

I KNOW WHO YOU ARE YOU ARE THE ONE THAT JAFS and LAFUS_CRICKAMUS chose to have in their threesome.Well enjoy sweetie because I have to go to work now.

I will address you as myrent because my respect for women won't allow me to use the first part of your ID. I am sorry you are so dissatisfied with your life that you feel the need to try to belittle someone else. Sadly, you do it in the name of Christianity. As a God fearing Christian I feel the need to apologize for your behavior. This is not the way God intended for us to act. This is not how we should represent ourselves or our church. You really should read the things you write and ask youself, would the things I have written make God proud of me? If the answer is no then maybe you shouldn't write them. You have a blessed day.

Just wanted to let you know I know all about the book of "JOB" and you better well hope you do as well so you don't have to endure the things "JOB" did.

Well unfortunately we DO NOT accept cans because we feel that the welfare recipients need them more than us and that should hold you over until the first of the month unless you find a J-O-B before then.

Def. J-O-B- A regular activity performed in exchange for payment, especially as one's trade, occupation, or profession.

I am NOT full of HATE I only dislike because you are not supose to HATE if you would read your bible you would know that.When you come to our church and they see your ugly face you will see that we are not a judgmental church. Come as you are to worship with us and make sure to "tuck it in and maybe you will win".

Also, quit putting this link on every article to try and get someone to defend you because obviously they are not wanting to.

DON'T LET IT TAKE YOU ALL DAY TO COME UP WITH SOMETHING ELSE AS LAME AS YOUR LAST COMMENT.HAVE A BLESSED DAY.
