TULSA, Okla. — More charges were filed against former Tulsa County juvenile detention officer Jonathan Hines on Oct. 4.
Hines now faces 12 felony charges in Tulsa County in five different cases.
Through the Tulsa County Sheriff's Office's investigation beginning in April, so far, five victims have come forward, alleging lewd behavior by Hines.
OCT. 3 CHARGES
The latest case against Hines accuses him of asking a 15-year-old boy in custody what he could give him to touch him sexually.
He allegedly asked the teen to touch him in private areas and gave him food and vapes to try and convince him.
Court documents say Hines also gave the teen his phone to call his ex-girlfriend. After that, he offered his phone only in return for sexual contact, but the teen refused.
Hines also allegedly asked the teen to have sex with him in the detention facility, offering money and plotting an excuse so as not to get caught.
The affidavit says Hines asked the teen to let him record the sexual interaction and bragged about having an OnlyFans page. The teen said he refused these advances as well.
He also allegedly showed the teen pornography on his phone.
After the 15-year-old was released, Hines allegedly texted him to see if he would meet up with him.
In this case, he's charged with:
- lewd or indecent proposal to a child
- bringing a phone into a jail
AUG. 26 CHARGES
On Aug. 26, Hines was accused by a 16-year-old boy, who claims Hines would ask to touch him inappropriately and perform sexual acts for snacks and up to $500 in exchange.
That case also accuses Hines of giving the teen vape pens. When the money, snacks, and vapes weren't effective, the lawsuit says Hines threatened the resident with reporting him for having a vape. He also said he "knew where he lived."
Court documents said Hines touched the teen inappropriately around 20 different times.
Hines is also accused of showing the teen pornography on his Apple watch.
In this case, he's charged with:
- soliciting a minor for indecent exposure/obscene mail
- bring a phone into a jail
JULY 8 CHARGES
On July 8, Hines was accused by a 15-year-old boy who claims Hines came into his cell at night and sexually abused him.
The sexual abuse allegedly stemmed from the boy asking to use Hines's cellphone. Hines said he could, but he wanted something in return, court documents said.
The boy reportedly knew Hines wanted to engage in sexual activity with residents in the facility.
Hines also allegedly let the boy see pictures of a naked woman on his phone.
In this case, he's charged with:
- Two counts of lewd molestation
- Bringing a phone into a jail
JUNE 5 CHARGES
On June 5, Hines was accused by a teen in the detention facility of asking for sexual favors.
Court documents said Hines asked the victim to see and touch his private parts at least two times. The victim allegedly said yes but found ways to delay Hines.
The affidavit said the victim handled the interactions this way out of fear of reprisal. The victim also said they had seen how Hines treated other residents who outright declined his advances.
The Tulsa County Sheriff's Office learned of these allegations after Hines' mother gave them a letter written in crayon that was addressed to Hines.
The victim told investigators that Hines gave out contraband like candy, vape pens and money to them and other residents.
The affidavit also said Hines smuggled his cell phone and Apple Watch into the facility. He allegedly used those to show the victim and other residents nude pictures of girls and himself.
He also allegedly bragged about making a lot of money from his OnlyFans page and suggested the victim come work for him after they were released, according to court documents.
He allegedly offered $1,000 a month and to share anything he had at the time with him, including women he was having sexual relationships with.
When the victim was leaving the facility, Hines allegedly gave them his home address and phone number and asked the victim to write him.
Court documents said the victim was too scared to say anything out of fear of Hines physically assaulting him since there were no cameras in his room.
In this case, Hines is charged with:
- Soliciting a minor for indecent exposure/photos
- Bringing a phone into a jail
APRIL 26 CHARGES
In April, Hines accused of human trafficking, having a phone in jail, and destroying evidence.
According to the affidavit, Hines acted like the toilet in the victim’s cell needed repairing, shoved a shoe in the door, and sexually assaulted the inmate. The reports detail more than one occasion.
Investigators were told Hines would get weed, snacks, and other contraband for inmates in exchange for sex and that the victim agreed to “take one for the team.”
Investigators seized Hines' cell phone. The affidavit states Hines fidgeted with the phone before handing it over and that a forensic extraction later revealed a text thread deleted at the same time frame he met with investigators.
Hines denied the allegations in the documents. In the report, he stated he is “too nice” and believes the inmates were mad at him for making them follow the rules.
In this case, he's charged with:
- Child human trafficking
- Bringing a phone into a jail
- Destroying evidence
Here's that story:
In May, Hines was namedin a civil rights lawsuit with 21 victims alleging widespread sexual abuse in the Tulsa County Family Center for Juvenile Justice.

The Broken Arrow Police Department is investigating more potential underage victims outside of the jail. BAPD said a warrant is issued for him in that case and that the investigation was sent to the Tulsa County District Attorney.
