SALEM — A 37-year-old Salem man has been sentenced to four years sex offender probation after he pleaded guilty Thursday in Marion County court to aggravated criminal sexual abuse.

Court records say Randie Gordon admitted to having sex with a 14-year-old juvenile girl that he initially met on Facebook. Police reported the victim became pregnant but action was not taken against Gordon until the child was born and DNA testing confirmed he is the father.

A warrant was subsequently issued for Gordon’s arrest on a Class 2 felony charge of aggravated criminal sexual abuse.

He’s been free on $10,000 cash bond since his June 2018 arrest. Gordon was given credit for 30 days served in jail.
