In a video posted on social media this week, Marion County Sheriff Billy Woods asked for the public’s help to locate a “worthless human being” who is wanted on multiple charges including sexual battery, molestation of a child, and human trafficking.
On Wednesday, July 10, during his regular “Wanted by Woods” Facebook segment, Sheriff Woods stated that Jahwreinsley Marley is wanted for three counts of sexual battery, lewd and lascivious molestation, human trafficking for commercial sex activity, solicitation, and battery.
The sheriff further stated that Marley is a “vile” man who “has taken away the innocence of more than one child,” and his alleged actions have “permanently changed the lives of his victims.”
No further details were provided by Sheriff Woods regarding the alleged crimes that were committed by Marley.
According to the sheriff, Marley is currently in hiding, and law enforcement believes that he has people who are helping to keep him hidden.
“If you are hiding him, I will have a spot for you in my jail as well,” stated Sheriff Woods. “So, I suggest you turn him in instead.”
Sheriff Woods encourages anyone with information regarding Jahwreinsley Marley’s whereabouts to contact the Crime Stoppers of Marion County by calling 352-368-STOP(7867), and reference 24-22 in your tip.
At the end of this week’s “Wanted by Woods” segment, the sheriff stated, “If you use Crime Stoppers and your tip leads to an arrest, I’ll be glad to pay you money for catching this shit.”
