(Michigan City, IN) - A Michigan City man has been accused of having a sexual relationship with a 15-year-old girl.

 

Christopher Jackson, 22, has been charged in La Porte Superior Court 1 with three Level 4 felony counts of Sexual Misconduct with a Minor, among other criminal allegations.

 

According to court documents, a police officer, responding to a loud music complaint close to midnight on March 27th, located a vehicle in a school parking lot on East Barker Avenue with two people moving around in the back seat. Moving closer to the vehicle, the officer spotted one of the people climbing into the front seat,  the car allegedly also housing marijuana and a loaded handgun.

 

The investigation reportedly revealed that Jackson and the girl began text messaging each other before winding up having sex on numerous occasions over a three-month period.

 

Court documents also revealed videos of them engaging in sex were also recovered for use as evidence in the case.

 

Investigators also spoke to the girl’s father, who replied she wasn’t supposed to be out that late at night.

 

Jackson could face as much as a 12-year sentence on each of the three sex-related counts, along with additional time for Possession of a Handgun and Marijuana.
