ST. GEORGE – A 19-year-old St. George man accused of multiple counts of sodomy and sexual abuse of a child now faces additional charges on a separate case in Iron County.
According to Iron County court documents, Paul Raymond Durborow allegedly committed first-degree felony rape of a child and second-degree felony sexual abuse of a child between September 2012 and November 2013.
Durborow is currently facing two first-degree felony counts of sodomy of a child and five second-degree felony counts of sexual abuse of a child in an unrelated case in Washington County.
Durborow pleaded not guilty to those charges on Jan. 9.
Durborow was in Purgatory Correctional Facility on a $100,000 cash-only bail at the time the $40,000 Iron County warrant was issued on Tuesday.
According to Washington County court documents, a witness allegedly saw Durborow lying on top of a victim while naked from the waist down.
"(Durborow) confessed to numerous incidents involving the 9-year-old victim," a St. George Police detective wrote in a probable cause statement. "He said this had happened at least five separate times here in St. George."
Durborow allegedly told the detective he had sodomized the child on two separate incidents.
"He also confessed to numerous similar incidents of sexual abuse and sodomy which had occurred in two other cities here in Utah over the last few years," the detective wrote.
According to court documents, Washington County Attorneys and Durborow's defense attorney are waiting for a resolution on Durborow's case in Iron County before appearing for a plea hearing on the Washington County charges.
A plea hearing is scheduled at 9 a.m. on May 1 in 5th District Court in St. George.
