Rodney Chism + Enabling Mother = Repeat Sex Offender

The son of a Shreveport day care owner is accused of sex crimes involving two youths. And she is charged with perjury.

Their arrests this week are the latest in an investigation into allegations of sexual assaults at Smart Start Learning Center Express.

Rodney Chism, 45, was booked Tuesday on two counts of molestation of a juvenile, said Lea Hall, of the Caddo district attorney’s office.

And his mother, Katherine Robbins, is accused of lying when questioned before a grand jury.

The warrant also charges Chism with one count each of aggravated rape, aggravated incest and aggravated oral sexual battery, according to the arrest report.

“I can tell you that both of the children from those counts had had contacts with the day care,” Hall said. “One of them was a child that was a customer and one was a family member.”

Chism, a registered sex offender who pleaded guilty in 1999 to carnal knowledge of a juvenile, and Robbins are named in secret indictments a Caddo grand jury returned in November.

Their arrests are the third and fourth in the case spawned by the indictment of Robbins’ son Darrell Chism, 36, in July on charges that he raped young family members. Those charges are unrelated to Smart Start.

On Sept. 17, the state pulled the license for the facility on Hearne Avenue because Robbins failed to perform background checks on all of her employees, among other things, authorities say. And the list of children she provided did not match the children who actually attended the facility.

And Robbins’ niece Tatanisha Kochinskey, 36, has been charge with tampering with evidence.

After the indictment, the state Social Services Department received an anonymous call alleging sexual abuse at the day care. That’s when Shreveport police and the Caddo district attorney’s office got involved. Both have since received numerous calls from parents whose children attended Smart Start.

The molestations began 14 years ago and occurred as recently as the arrest several months ago, authorities said.

It’s unknown whether the Chism brothers worked at the day care, but they did frequent the facility.

Ron Sean Arter Jr – Repeat Sex Offender – Sentenced to 10 years

A 29-year-old Redding man who used a digital camera hidden in a book to secretly film under girls’ skirts was sentenced today to 10 years in federal prison.

Ron Sean Arter was sentenced after pleading guilty in September to possession of child pornography and violating his supervised release condition, a spokeswoman with the U.S. Attorney’s Office said.

Arter was convicted in 2002 of possession and transportation of child pornography and sentenced to 33 months in prison, U.S. Attorney’s Office prosecutors said.

He began a three-year term of supervised release in 2004.

His release included conditions that required him to not commit another criminal offense, possess pornographic material or use a computer to access the Internet, prosecutors said.

In 2006, however, Arter was arrested by Redding police after they discovered that he used a concealed camera to film underneath the skirt of an 11-year-old girl inside a Redding store.

Police said that he also secretly filmed women and girls, including a 9-year-old, at several locations in Redding, including the Mt. Shasta Mall, a toy store and at the candy section of a department store.

In addition, police said, he used his girlfriend’s laptop computer to download and possess child pornography from the Internet.

Arter was indicted last year by a federal grand jury on the child pornography possession and supervised release violation.

The case was investigated by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the Department of Homeland Security and the Redding Police Department.

U.S. Attorney’s Office prosecutors said that the case was the product of Project Safe Childhood, a U.S. Department of Justice initiative that increases federal prosecutions of violent sexual predators of children.

Joshua A. Uerkvitz – Repeat Sex Offender – Going back to prison

A convicted sex offender was sent to prison today for possessing child pornography while on probation for molesting a child.

U.S. District Judge David G. Larimer sentenced Joshua A. Uerkvitz, 23, of Rochester to 10 years in prison and ordered that he spend 15 years on supervised release when his prison term concludes.

In August 2006, Uerkvitz was sentenced to 10 years’ probation and six months in Monroe County Jail after he pleaded guilty to first-degree sexual abuse involving sexual contact with a child under 11.

Probation officers found images on his home computer in June 2007. He pleaded guilty in June 2008 to possession of child pornography.

Larimer said he’ll recommend that federal prison officials place Uerkvitz in a federal medical facility because Uerkvitz has physical, psychiatric and emotional illnesses that require medication and supervision. Since his arrest, he has been held on a medical floor of County Jail.
