(Sullivan, IN) — A Terre Haute man was arrested on charges of Unlawful Proposition, early Tuesday morning. According to Sullivan County Sheriff, Clark Cottom, sixty-four-year-old Rodney Sneath of Terre Haute, was booked into the same jail where Sheriff’s investigators say he made the unlawful propositions to female inmates. Investigators say that Sneath had participated in video visits and phone conversations with a female inmate at the Sullivan County Jail, where he can be heard offering to put money on female inmate accounts, in exchange for sexual contact, after the inmate is released from jail. Jail records show that Sneath did deposit money on a female inmate’s books, shortly after the conversations. Sullivan County Jail inmates are limited to video visits, so no physical contact occurred. The female inmate was still incarcerated at the time of Sneath’s arrest. Tuesday morning Sneath posted $4000 bond with 10% allowed, with a court date set for July 11, 2019.
