MONTGOMERY, IL — A Montgomery sex offender faces charges after the Kendall County Sheriff's Office said Wednesday that he failed to accurately register information.

Corey J. McDonald, 28, was charged with three counts of unlawful failure to register. Kendall County sheriff's deputies began investigating the man, who is a registered sex offender, on Nov. 13, 2023.

The Kendall County State's Attorney's Office approved the three felony charges against McDonald after reviewing the facts and circumstances of the investigation.

McDonald appeared before a judge the next day and was released on pre-trial conditions pending his next court date on March 5.

The 23-year-old man was initially charged with eight counts of possession of child pornography following a six-month-long investigation by Batavia police, Patch reported.
