The Sarasota County Sheriff’s Office is advising the public about a new sexual offender – James Billingsley

 
 

SCSO

 

Billingsley was convicted in 1985 in South Carolina of Second Degree Criminal Sexual Conduct and sentenced to three years in prison. In 2016, he failed to meet sexual offender registration requirements, serving an additional 180 days behind bars. Billingsley again failed to meet registration requirements in 2019 and received a suspended sentence with credit for time served. He recently relocated and reports his address is 1709 Racimo Drive in Sarasota. Billingsley is not currently under the supervision of the Florida Department of Corrections, and because the original offense occurred out of state prior to 2004, residency restrictions do not apply.
