(KNZA)-- A Jackson County man has been arrested three times since May on sex-related charges.

Jackson County Attorney Shawna Miller says 21-year-old Jacob Ewing turned himself in to authorities Friday morning in the lastest case.

That comes after a warrant was issued Thursday charging Ewing with attempted rape, aggravated sexual battery and battery for alleged incidents occurring in January 2014.

Miller says Ewing was initially arrested May 6th on charges of rape, aggravated criminal sodomy, battery and other offenses against an 18-year-old female allegedly occurring that day.   He posted a $75,000 bond in the case the same day.

A second complaint was filed on June 10th in Jackson County District Court charging Ewing with similar offenses occurring in September 2014. He was arrested on a $75,000 bond, which he posted the same day

Miller says despite the state’s objection, a judge Friday morning modified Ewing’s $150,000 bond in the latest case to an O.R. bond.

As part of the conditions of his bond, Ewing must be electronically monitored, have no (social) contact, direct or indirect, with any non-relative female and abstain from drug or alcohol use.

Ewing is scheduled to make a first appearance on all three cases Monday morning.

Jackson County Sheriff Tim Morse says the sheriff's department is actively involved in the investigations which are ongoing.
