Parker Kingston’s Legal Situation
Kingston, 21 years old, was initially held without bail. The charges stemmed from a year-long investigation launched in February 2025. Authorities moved to release him on a $100,000 bail with specific conditions.
Bail Conditions
- Kingston must wear a GPS ankle monitor.
- He is required to leave Washington County.
- Return to Washington County is only allowed for court appearances.
- He cannot contact the alleged victim or potential witnesses.
