Jackson County authorities have arrested a registered sex offender who had been portraying Santa Claus.
A detective with the Jackson County sheriff’s office received confidential information that a known sex offender was working as a Santa, said Sheriff Mike Sharp. The offender, identified as James R. Gray, 50, of Lee’s Summit, was contacted and the report was confirmed.
Although it is not illegal to portray Santa Claus, Sharp said, authorities arrested Gray and charged him with failure to register as a sex offender for not reporting his employment as required.
