ST. FRANCISVILLE — A motion to reinstate bond conditions for a man charged with second-degree rape of a 13-year-old girl was filed on Monday. 

According to court records, 43-year-old Jacob Mansell was charged with second-degree rape and sexual battery on Aug. 20, 2024 after a 13-year-old girl allegedly told a medical clinic about inappropriate activity involving Mansell.

Records show that medical examinations conducted at the clinic indicated possible sexual activity. 

Following his arrest, Mansell bonded out on March 7, 2026, under the condition that he have no contact with the teenage victim. 

The bond condition was later recalled by the court, allowing Mansell to contact the teenager, possibly.

A motion to reinstate the bond condition was filed on Monday. Mansell currently remains awaiting trial. 

District Attorney Sam D'Aquilla said that Judge Picou Walker "is clearly in violation of the law by not protecting these children."

She failed to issue a protective order and removed a no-contact order designed to protect these children from an alleged sexual predator," he said. "We are concerned for the safety of these children."
