PEORIA Ill. – A 20-year-old man was charged Thursday for sexually abusing two teenagers that are under the age of 18.
According to the Peoria County State’s Attorney’s Office — in a detention hearing today (Thursday) Jordan Gibson was charged with Assault and Aggravated Criminal Sexual Abuse — the state’s petition to detain Gibson was granted as well.
This means he will remain in jail until his trial.
Last weekend, Peoria County sheriff deputies received a report of a sexual assault involving a teenager.
Once interviewing the victim, they were told that Gibson pushed the victim down and forcefully performed sexual acts on the victim.
This investigation led detectives to a second victim who told deputies that one month ago, while the victim was lying in bed, Gibson took off the victim’s clothing and had sex with the victim.
More charges could be filed when the case proceeds to the grand jury.
