PEORIA, Ill. – A Peoria County grand jury filed single counts against two area residents in two separate cases this week.
Peoria County Court records indicate Travis Close, 32, pleaded guilty during an arraignment Thursday to a Class-X felony charge of Predatory Criminal Sexual Assault.
Close was indicted by a grand jury earlier this week.
An indictment alleges Close assaulted a minor under the age of 13 back in May in Peoria County.
No other details are available, except Close will be back in court January 19th ahead of a trial as soon as January 30th. He remains jailed.
In a different case, the grand jury filed a charge of Unauthorized Video Transmission against Nikya Edgerson, 25.
An indictment alleges Edgerson posted a video on Facebook of another woman’s chest area, and that the video was done without the other woman’s consent.
Several other charges Edgerson was booked on were not part of the indictment.
Edgerson was released from jail in October, and is scheduled for arraignment January 26th.
