On July 30, 2025, detectives with the Coffee County Sheriff’s Office Sex Offender Unit arrested Jeremiah Hampton Tarlton, age 41, of Douglas. Tarlton, a registered sex offender, was taken into custody after being found in violation of Georgia’s sex offender residency and employment restrictions.

The investigation began when the Sex Offender Unit received a tip Tuesday afternoon indicating that Tarlton was employed at a location within close proximity to a place of worship. Detectives promptly followed up and confirmed that Tarlton was working in an area that violated the restrictions placed on registered sex offenders in the state of Georgia.

Under Georgia Code O.C.G.A. 42-1-15, registered sex offenders are prohibited from residing, working, or loitering within 1,000 feet of childcare facilities, schools, school bus stops, or places where minors congregate—including churches and other places of worship.

Violating this law is classified as a felony and is punishable by a minimum of one year and up to thirty years imprisonment for each offense.

Tarlton was arrested without incident at the job site and transported to the Coffee County Jail, where he remains in custody pending further legal proceedings.
