MEDFORD, Ore. -- Capping a four-month investigation, Jackson County Sheriff's Office detectives arrested an 18-year-old Medford man for having sexual contact with middle school-aged girls. Detectives believe there are likely more victims who have not yet come forward.

On Thursday, January 11, 2018, Joshua Thomas Campos, of the 1500-block of Hancock Avenue was lodged in jail. He is being held on charges of sexual abuse in the first degree, sexual abuse in the second degree, rape in the second degree, unlawful sexual penetration in the second degree, sodomy in the third degree, and two counts of rape in the third degree. A circuit court judge set bail at $250,000.

The charges involve three separate victims, ages 13 and 14, in incidents that occurred in 2017. Detectives say Campos contacted the victims through friends, at parties, and online.

Detectives would like to hear from additional victims and anyone who has information to share about the case. Those with information can call Detective Steve Bohn at (541) 774-6168.
