A Utah child sex offender confessed to additional crimes, so why didn’t he face additional charge?

SALT LAKE CITY — Inside concrete walls at the San Juan County Jail, a sheriff’s deputy sat down across from a convicted child sex offender and recited the Miranda rights.

Wesley Salisbury, aware of his legal right to remain silent, wanted to talk.

“I got a plea deal and it kind of makes me sick,” he started.

Salisbury had specifically asked to speak to a law enforcement officer because he wanted to share information about two undisclosed victims and additional sexual crimes he’d committed but never been charged for.

But that taped conversation never led to additional charges, despite two further attempts Salisbury made to confess.

The KSL Investigators spent months asking questions and fighting for public records to understand why.
