SALISBURY — A registered sex offender was charged Tuesday with failing to notify the Rowan County Sheriff’s Office that she had a social media account.
According to Capt. John Sifford, sex offenders can have a social media page but they must tell a law enforcement agency how the page is listed.
Shanna Jones, 39, was charged with failing to notify the agency of her online identifier after she set up a Facebook page.
In 1999, Jones was convicted of indecent assault of a child under age 13 in Pennsylvania. In April, Jones was placed on the Sheriff’s Office’s most-wanted list for not notifying the agency of a change of address.
