"The DCSO is actively working with Corrections and offering assistance to co-supervise his release. Sheriff Hanson will pursue all possible legal and enforcement options to keep children safe in that neighborhood. The DCSO is also increasing patrol activity in the Arbor Gate neighborhood and 196th and V Street area where the initial attempted sexual assault took place, which is also the neighborhood in which Vinton lives," the office added.
Deputies have said that Vinton has faced similar accusations in the past, according to WOWT. In response to the incident, the Gretna Public Schools in the area has said that its students have been told to use the buddy system for their safety as he has been let out on bond.
