New Charges for Registered Sex Offender

A 60-year-old Dayton resident, Douglas Lockhart, has been indicted on multiple counts involving the illegal use of minors in explicit material, according to Montgomery County court documents.

Lockhart was already under active post-release supervision following a 2022 conviction for gross sexual imposition, as confirmed by a spokesperson from the Montgomery County Prosecutor's Office.

"As a regular part of the conditions of his release, he turned over his phone to law enforcement and CSAM (child sexual assault material) was found on it," the spokesperson stated.

Court records indicate that Lockhart received a 30-month prison sentence for his previous offense and was required to register as a Tier III sex offender.

He is currently not detained at the Montgomery County Jail but is expected to appear in court on December 30 for the new charges.
