Man with sex abuse record charged with grabbing state worker

[TexasTowelie]

DES MOINES (AP) — An 88-year-old man with previous sex abuse convictions could spend the rest of his life in prison after being accused of grabbing a state mental-hospital worker between the legs.

William Cubbage faces a Nov. 15 hearing to decide whether he's competent to stand trial. Cubbage, who was convicted of numerous sex crimes from 1987 through 2000, is a resident of the state mental hospital at Independence.

He gained notoriety after he was accused in 2011 of molesting a 95-year-old woman at a Pomeroy nursing home, where state officials placed him without notifying other residents.

The latest charge against him is assault with intent to commit sexual abuse. The charge accuses Cubbage of grabbing the woman between the legs while she was showering him last January.

1. Yeah he needs to be in a secure environment

It's one thing if someone who has never done anything wrong and never has so much as a traffic ticket has dementia and acts out. It's another thing altogether with a guy like this who spent most of his adult life in trouble for sex crimes.
