A Nebraska man was sentenced Thursday in U-S District Court to 3-years in prison for failing to register with the sex offender registry in Pottawattamie County, Iowa. District Court Judge Ronald Longstaff also ordered 42-year old Randall Jo Haggart to serve a three-year term of supervised release following incarceration.

On March 27th, 2012, Haggart entered a guilty plea to failing to register with the sex offender registry in Iowa. Haggart has been required to register as a sex offender since 2003. From December, 2010, up to and including July 6, 2011, Haggart resided in Council Bluffs, without registering with the sex offender registry in Pottawattamie County.

The investigation was conducted by the United States Marshal’s Service, and was prosecuted by the United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Iowa.
