Former Officer Jeffery Webb Sr. Charged Again with Statutory Rape of Minor

JACKSON, Miss.

A judge has set a $100,000 bond for a former police officer accused of raping a minor.

Jeffery Webb Sr. is charged with statutory rape and sexual battery, according to the Jackson police docket. Details of the crime have not been made public.

This is the second time the 50-year-old former Jackson officer has been accused of rape.

Webb was charged with rape in 2002 for allegedly forcing a 16-year-old girl to have sex. He was acquitted of the charges in 2006.

Webb was found not guilty of the crime in March 2006 following a jury trial in Hinds County.
