JEFFERSON COUNTY – An investigation by Special Agents with the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has resulted in the arrest of a man on a variety of charges, including criminal simulation, identity theft, and forgery.

In December 2018, at the request of 4th District Attorney General James Dunn, TBI Agents began investigating allegations involving James Bundy. During the course of the investigation, Agents discovered that the signature of a mental health consultant was forged on an evaluation in order to get James Bundy removed from the North Carolina Sex Offender Registry.

Last week, the Jefferson County Grand Jury returned indictments charging James Bundy (DOB 05/09/83) with one count of Criminal Simulation, one count of Forgery, one count of Identity Theft, one count of Fabricating Evidence, and one count of False Reporting. On Tuesday, Bundy turned himself in and was booked into the Jefferson County Jail.
