An Oxford man has been taken into custody after allegedly carrying on a months-long attempt to speak with a person who has a no-contact order against him.
58-year-old Jimmy Frees reportedly has been trying to contact the victim since November of last year on an ongoing basis. The victim has requested criminal trespass warnings on Frees, who was convicted on a 3rd degree Harassment charge this past June.
Recently, the victim identified Freese at her residence despite the active no-contact order. He was reportedly disguising himself with a wig and allegedly left a journal containing entries of specific threats to kill or harm her. Police say that she is visibly frightened, as one of the entries mentioned a direct threat to harm or kill her on Halloween.
A warrant was issued for the man’s arrest, and he was booked into the Johnson County Jail Thursday afternoon. He’s been charged with Stalking and 1st degree Harassment. If convicted on both charges, Frees could be sentenced to up to seven years in prison.
