Jensen’s Trial Moved To August
ROCHESTER — A request to continue the jury trial of Mark A. Jensen, 63, 1923 E. Timberline Circle South, Warsaw, was granted Thursday, April 7. The trial, originally scheduled for Tuesday, April 26, has been set for 8:30 a.m. Wednesday, Aug. 3, in Fulton County Superior Court.
Jensen, a former doctor in Warsaw, was charged on July 25, 2015, on four counts of child exploitation and one count of sexual misconduct with a minor. All charges are class C felonies. His bond was set at $40,000.
A criminal investigation was launched by the Indiana State Police on July 23, 2015. The investigation was launched following the receipt of information from the Fulton County Division of Child Services. Police were informed an adult male had potentially performed a sexual act on a then 14-year-old boy.
It was discovered during the investigation in late November of 2012, Jensen had allegedly committed a sex act on the boy in Kosciusko County and had also purportedly videotaped the boy while he was naked. The acts reportedly occurred at a hunting cabin in Akron located near 13700 E. SR 114.
Further investigation revealed this was not Jensen’s first offense against a child. In July of 2010, Jensen purportedly videotaped a 17-year-old Kosciusko County boy while he was undressed. This incident allegedly occurred at the same hunting cabin in Akron.
