Criminal Contact Offenses Land People in Jail
By Mary Jane Farmer, for the Van Alstyne News, Scene In Town
Thursday and Saturday (Feb. 15 and Feb. 17), Van Alstyne Police responded to two calls (separate incidents) and made arrests of three local residents. In neither report did police give the locations of the arrests.
Thursday’s arrest was of a female on a charge of Indecency with a Child by Sexual Contact. Lt. Steven Hayslip said that the alleged victim is a 6-year-old child. Police jailed the suspect. Hayslip added that she gave no resistance to her arrest, that she knew police were investigating the alleged incident.
According to Grayson County Jail records, the suspect remained incarcerated Monday in lieu of $200,000 bail, payable with a bond and which carries special condition when/after she is released. Grayson County Jail records also 
show the incident as having happened on February 3 of this year.
On Saturday, police jailed two suspects, a male and a female, on Class C Misdemeanor charges of Assault by Contact Family Violence. Hayslip said the two live in the same residence and got into a “verbal altercation.” The female then made physical contact with with male. Another roommate heard the argument and came into the room. That’s when the male then made physical contact with the roommate.
Bail on both suspects was set at $275 cash, and both went free Sunday after “laid out time,” according to the Grayson County Jail documentation.
