Hardman said Jarrell is accused of one count rape, a first-degree felony; and two counts of gross sexual imposition, third-degree felonies. Jarrell allegedly had sexual contact and sexual conduct with a child younger than 12 between Oct. 1 and Nov. 30, 2022, according to Hardman. The child told her mother, who contacted police.

Jarrell’s arraignment is scheduled for 1 p.m. in Warren County Common Pleas Court. He is being held without bail in the Warren County Jail pending his arraignment hearing.
