MARSHALL COUNTY, Ind. -- The Marshall County Prosecutor's Office announced 26-year-old Michael T. Rex of Argos was convicted of Child Molesting following a three-day jury trial a week ago.

Rex was originally charged with four counts of Child Molesting, ranging from Level 1 to Level 4 Felonies, and four counts of Sexual Misconduct with a Minor, ranging from Level 4 to Level 5 Felonies.

Rex was convicted on one count of Child Molesting, a Level 4 Felony, and one count of Sexual Misconduct with a Minor, a Level 5 Felony.

Rex was charged in 2024 after a 14-year-old revealed the two were in a sexual relationship spanning about 2 years.

Rex is scheduled to be sentenced on Nov. 18, in Marshall Superior Court 1.

Level 5 Felonies carry a penalty of 1 to 6 years in the Department of Correction, while Level 4 Felonies carry a penalty of 2 to 12 years.
