McDavid Registered Sex Offender Headed Back To Prison For Four Years

January 20, 2013

A registered sex offender from McDavid is headed back to prison after violating his probation and cutting off his electronic ankle monitor.

Nathan Arron Mack, age 21 of 403 Railroad Street, was sentenced by Judge Joel Boles to four years in state prison after being convicted of violation of probation, failing to report a residence change and destroying electronic monitoring equipment.

In January 2011, Mack was convicted of the sexual battery of a 14-year old girl. He was sentenced to 18 months in prison, with credit for time served awaiting trial, followed by 18 months probation. Under the terms of his probation, he was forbidden to have unsupervised contact with any minor and ordered to enter a sex offender counseling program.

The victim’s stepfather told Escambia County Sheriff’s deputies that the 14-year old, who had been reported as a runaway, was at Mack’s residence on Railroad Street. When deputies arrived at the residence, they found Mack and the teen girl.

According to a Sheriff’s Office arrest report, Mack admitted to having intercourse multiple times with the 14-year old. He admitted that he had picked up the Pensacola girl at the Winn Dixie on Nine Mile Road because he knew the victim’s mother would not allow the two to be together. The young girl corroborated Mack’s story, according to the report.

When deputies contacted the victim’s mother, she advised that she wanted to pursue criminal charges against Mack. The mother stated that she had retrieved her daughter from Mack at the McDavid Mini Mart the week prior and had forbidden him from having any contact with her daughter.

Mack, a registered sex offender, was released from the Okaloosa Correctional Institution on November 30, 2011, and placed on probation.

In August 2012, deputies found Mack in the area of Bluff Springs Road and Dawson Road after a tip he was in that area, about two weeks after he had removed his electronic ankle monitor.  Mack told deputies he removed the monitor because he knew he had already violated his probation and he was going to hide out until warrants became active. He told deputies he threw the monitoring bracelet and charging station into the woods in the area of Mystic Springs about two weeks earlier.

    Good for the mom, she seems like she really cares for her child.

    CONCERNING:
    “They knew immediately that he cut his monitor off… It just took two weeks to find him and get him in custody. Once he cut it off, he went into hiding.”

    When he cut it off, he was still in the same place where he cut it off. He may have left shortly after, so it would be a time-sensitive matter. but for the next minute or so, his whereabouts were extremely localized.

    If I had designed that monitor, he would have had to cut his foot off to remove it.

    My advice to “Svu detective” who wrote: “They knew immediately that he cut his monitor off… It just took two weeks to find him and get him in custody. Once he cut it off, he went into hiding”
    Call the victim’s family next time!!! Seems like they knew where he was at all times!!!

    REGARDING:
    “It is really sad that a 19 year old can get labeled as a sex offender for having a 14 year old girlfriend.”

    Actually, you can have friends of any age. You just can’t have sexual relations with minors just because you want to.

    David for mature thinking

    It is really sad that a 19 year old can get labeled as a sex offender for having a 14 year old girlfriend. When I was 15, my boyfriend was 20.

    This young man should have done the right thing. He also should have stayed away from that young lady at the demand of her family. Times are not as they were. My grandmother married my grandfather when she was 14 and he was 25 and she had my father by 15.

    Society has left those times in the past and such behaviour isn’t tolerated now he will lose some more years of his life for his action. I hope that when he gets out this time he does something positive with his life.

    He had the bracelet off for two weeks?! before they even knew he wasnt wearing it? And it took someone calling in and reporting this for them to find out. Ok, tell me I read that wrong. The way I am getting this, the man took the bracelet off his ankle, the bracelet that is supposed to allow the police to keep track of him, and no one knew he was missing or had taken it off? Is that right? Wow, I feel so safe.

    Maybe 4 years in prison will help Mr Mack, get children out of his system.

    In any event she will be 18 years of age by the time he is released.
