JACKSBORO, TN. (WLAF)- Nearly two years after being indicted for voter registration fraud, Charles Robert Silcox turned himself into Campbell County authorities last month.

In September 2023, Silcox was indicted by a Campbell County Grand Jury for illegally voting in three states, court records said.

The charges are:

-Between  Sept. 10, 2020, and Nov. 3, 2020, Silcox allegedly requested an absentee ballot from Davidson County, North Carolina.  He then cast a ballot despite living in Campbell County.

-Between Oct. 2, 2020, and Nov. 3, 2020, he voted in Campbell County using an absentee ballot, the indictment said.

-He also voted in the Nov. 3, 2020, election in Pima County, Arizona, using an absentee ballot, according to court records.

In each instance, Silcox knew he wasn’t  â€œentitled” to vote in those elections, the indictment said.

The indictment remained sealed and unserved for almost two years.

On July 28, Silcox walked in at the Campbell County Jail and turned himself in to authorities, according to records.

The 68-year-old Silcox, who gave a Jacksboro address, was released on a $10,000 bond.

On July 31, Attorney Marcos Garza entered a notice of appearance on Silcox’s behalf. He also filed a motion to preserve evidence in the case, court records said.

Silcox is scheduled to appear in court on Oct. 6.
