Jamie Verdin, 34, of 121 Norwich Lane in Houma, was charged with indecent behavior with a juvenile after the parents of an 11-year-old learned he had allegedly touched the girl in an inappropriate manner, Sheriff Jerry Larpenter said.

Verdin stayed at the home Thursday, the sheriff said. The next day, authorities were notified that Verdin had a sexual conversation before allegedly abusing the girl after he consumed several alcoholic beverages, Larpenter said.

Verdin’s bond was set at $75,000. He is a registered sex offender for forcible rape of a minor child, authorities said.
