A former Monterey County California Highway Patrol officer has again been charged with sex crimes involving children, this time out of Washington state. 

Jacob Duenas, 36, has been charged with four counts of first-degree child rape that allegedly took place in 2000, according to a Wednesday article in the News Tribune in Tacoma, Wash.

Duenas previously served as a CHP officer based in Salinas, where in 2008 he later pleaded no contest to two misdemeanor counts of molesting two girls, 13 and 14. 

Duenas was fired by the CHP, sentenced to three years’ probation and required to register as a sex offender. 

In April 2015, he was arrested in Chico on a warrant for molesting a 10-year-old boy and pleaded no contest, receiving a sentence of 180 days in jail and five years probation, according to the Chico Enterprise-Record. 

Duenas also previously testified during his father’s trial for the murder of Duenas’ mother in Shasta County.
