A Gresham man
conditionally released before his Deschutes County sexual abuse trial is
in custody at the Tillamook County jail on related charges, court
records show.
James Daniel Worley, 42, is being held in lieu of
$1.1 million bail in the Tillamook County jail on charges of sexual
abuse, rape and sodomy of two children, alleged to have occurred in 2005
and 2006. The Tillamook County jail confirmed Worley remained in
custody Thursday.
Court records show Worley, a pastor and former
Tillamook police officer, pleaded not guilty on April 29 to 12 counts of
first-degree sexual abuse, three counts of first-degree rape and
several other sex crimes in Tillamook County. Records also indicate
Worley’s attorney argued for his conditional release, but the motion was
denied.
Worley pleaded not guilty in January to 37 charges
pertaining to the alleged sexual abuse of two children between 2002 and
2004 in Deschutes County. He was conditionally released from the
Deschutes County jail in late January after his bail was reduced from $1
million to $250,000.
He now also awaits a trial in Tillamook County,
which is scheduled to begin Aug. 11. His Deschutes County trial is
scheduled to begin about a month later on Sept. 15 and is expected to
take eight to 10 days.
