SULLIVAN COUNTY, Ind – A Terre Haute man was arrested in Sullivan County Tuesday morning on charges of Unlawful Proposition.

Investigators say that 64 year old Rodney Sneath of Terre Haute, made unlawful propositions to female inmates at the Sullivan County Jail.

Investigators say that Sneath had participated in video visits with a female inmate at the Sullivan County Jail, as well as had phone conversations with the inmate.

During the visits, police say Sneath can be heard offering to put money on female inmate accounts, in exchange for sexual contact, after the inmate was released from jail.

Jail records show that Sneath did deposit money on a female inmate’s books, shortly after the conversations.

Sullivan County Jail inmates are limited to video visits, so no physical contact occurred.

The female inmate was still incarcerated at the time of Sneath’s arrest.

Tuesday morning Sneath posted $4000. bond and has a court date set for July 11th.
