Marshals say Jerry Thomas Tomlin Jr. is wanted by the Newport News, Virginia Police Department on 25 counts of felony forcible sodomy, 26 counts of felony indecent liberties, and 1 count of attempted felony sodomy with a minor.

Investigators tell us they found Tomlin in a single wide trailer at on Camp Avenue, hiding in a bedroom, under a blanket, between an air mattress and wall.  Marshals believe Tomlin’s half-brother owns the trailer.
