Mattox was arrested July 16, 2015, on his 60th birthday, following an investigation after one girl in October 2014 reported sex abuse to police. The abuse went back to 2008, prosecutors said, and the investigation revealed two more victims.

Mattox also was designated a Tier III sex offender, which is the highest level.
