Jase Stanton, 29, of Manhattan was arrested for offender registration. which involves failure to report accurately and in full information as required by the Kansas offender registry act. As earlier reported by KMAN during a preliminary hearing last month three Fort Riley soldiers testified regarding a June seventh incident, when they indicated they met Stanton at a Manhattan bar. The men indicated they went to his home where he had promised there would be women, but passed out after consuming part of a mixed drink made by Stanton. As KMAN first reported back in June, Stanton made Kansas City Headlines in 2009 and resigned from his position as a field coordinator with Todd Tiahrt’s U-S Senate campaign after being accused of aggravated criminal sodomy and sexual battery. He was later convicted of those crimes. Stanton’s bond was set at $10,000.
