Okemah Rocked As Two Young Men Jailed In Okfuskee Sex Assault Probe

Two men are now in the Okfuskee County jail after state agents announced arrests tied to a sexual assault investigation that has drawn in multiple law enforcement agencies. The suspects, identified by investigators as 20-year-old Justin Gill and 18-year-old Logan Sessions, turned themselves in on July 21 and were booked into the county facility. Authorities said Gill faces two counts of first-degree rape and Sessions faces one count.

What investigators say

In a public update, the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation said Gill’s bond was set at $500,000 and Sessions’ at $100,000. Both men reportedly turned themselves in on July 21 and were booked into the Okfuskee County jail.

The agency said the Okfuskee County Sheriff’s Office asked the bureau to take on the case on July 10. In its statement, the bureau thanked the Muscogee (Creek) Nation Lighthorse Police for assisting with the investigation and noted that the case remains active and ongoing.

Where they are being held

Public records list the Okfuskee County Jail at 209 North 3rd Street in Okemah, where pretrial detainees are processed, according to InmateAid. Officials said Gill and Sessions were booked at that facility and remain in county custody pending prosecution. Upcoming court filings are expected to show whether prosecutors move forward with formal complaints and to set out any hearing dates.

Legal context

Rape in the first degree is a Class A offense under Oklahoma law and can bring prison terms that range from a minimum of five years up to life or life without parole in some circumstances, as described in Oklahoma Statutes, Title 21. Sentences depend on factors such as aggravating circumstances and prior convictions and are set in district court.

The OSBI emphasized that the charges are accusations at this stage and that both men are presumed innocent unless and until they are proven guilty in court.

What happens next

The bureau says its investigation is still active and that it will provide updates through official channels as additional information is cleared for release. Anyone with information related to the case can contact the Okfuskee County Sheriff's Office, which lists contact numbers for the office and the jail on its county webpage.
