PORT ANGELES — Accused child rapist Brian Wayne McBride violated the conditions of his release and is facing new charges in Tennessee, Clallam County prosecutors said.
McBride, 31, was charged March 15 with first-degree rape of a child younger than 12.
The Port Angeles man was released on his personal recognizance after his initial court appearance March 11. He was ordered to have no contact with minors.
Deputy Prosecuting Attorney April King filed a motion to revoke McBride’s pretrial release Wednesday, saying McBride had moved back into a home where minors lived and that he accompanied the alleged victim’s mother to pick up other children from a school.
McBride was arrested after a Thursday court appearance on an extradition warrant to Sumner County in Tennessee, where he is charged with two counts of rape of a child.
He was charged in Clallam County Superior Court on Friday with being a fugitive from justice in another state.
$200,000 bail
McBride is now being held in the Clallam County jail on $200,000 bail.
He faces a June 6 trial in the Clallam County child rape case.
Port Angeles police allege that McBride raped a girl over the course of several years.
The alleged crimes occurred in Tennessee and in the Sequim area before the girl was 12, Port Angeles Detective Erik Smith wrote in the affidavit for probable cause.
Police were tipped that McBride had violated the conditions of his release by accompanying the alleged victim’s mother to pick up a different child from Roosevelt Elementary School on May 13, court papers said.
School officials told police that the mother became nervous when questioned about a man in her vehicle and that she tried to text a message covertly.
Witnesses said McBride then exited the vehicle, walked away from the school and was picked up by the alleged victim’s mother around a corner, police said.
An officer discovered that McBride had moved into the garage of the alleged victim’s mother’s South C Street Extension residence where minors lived.
The woman told police that McBride could no longer afford to live at a motel and that he had had no physical contact with any of the children.
McBride had been ordered to reside at 812 E. First St. — the Ruffles Motel — when he was released from jail in March.
McBride’s next court appearance is scheduled for 1:30 p.m. Friday.
