A registered child sex offender pleaded guilty Thursday to loitering near Ransom grade school. Tomure Adams could face three years in prison.
Adams, 50, of Bolingbrook entered a blind plea in La Salle County Circuit Court<\/a> to one count of sex offender in a school zone, a Class 4 felony. A second such count was dismissed.
Chief Judge H. Chris Ryan Jr. scheduled a sentencing hearing for May 15. Adams will at that time have an opportunity to speak in open court.
Adams was charged in December after school officials spotted a \u201csuspicious person\u201d in a vehicle driving around the school building on Dec. 3 and \u201cloitered there some time.\u201d
Assistant La Salle County<\/a> State\u2019s Attorney Jeremiah Adams said in open court that the school superintendent confronted the driver, later identified as Adams, and took a photo of his license plate. The suspect, he said, told the superintendent he was there to meet an individual he named; but the person identified had no connection to Ransom school.
La Salle County sheriff\u2019s deputies tracked the plate number and questioned Tomure Adams, who was found to have a 1999 conviction from Will County<\/a> for aggravated criminal sexual abuse. Adams admitted to police he was at the school about 10 minutes.<\/p>\n
