Neshoba County man pleads guilty to sexual abuse charges involving minors

On July 1, 2025, a man from Neshoba County pleaded guilty to two counts of sexual abuse of a minor. The announcement was made by Acting U.S. Attorney Patrick A. Lemon and Robert Eikhoff, Acting Special Agent in Charge of the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Jackson Office.

Court documents reveal that Quindon Bailey John, aged 23, engaged in sexual contact with two female minors between the ages of 12 and 16 at the time of the offenses. The incidents took place in the Conehatta Community on the Choctaw Indian Reservation during 2023 and 2024.

John is set for sentencing on November 4, 2025, facing up to fifteen years in prison for each count. A federal district judge will determine the sentence after reviewing the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors.

The investigation was conducted by the Choctaw Police Department and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The case was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Brian K. Burns and Kevin J. Payne.
