Gary Hargett, who is charged with second-degree sexual assault, will now faces the possible revocation of a suspended sentence in a drug-related case handed down in October last year.During a session of Baxter County Circuit Court Thursday, Judge Gordon Webb set a hearing on the petition to revoke for September 21st. Hargett pled “not true” or not guilty to the allegations in the revocation petition.
The revocation action was triggered when Hargett picked up sexual assault charges in August. The 30-year-old Hargett was accused of having inappropriate sexual contact with a then 15-year-old girl during the summer of 2016.
Hargett told investigators that the sexual contact happened, but said the girl was the aggressor.
He is an inmate in the Baxter County Detention Center with bond set at almost $52,000.
