25-year-old William McFarland III had inappropriate relations with a 16-year-old male on June 3rd. The 16-year-old’s mother alerted the authorities, advising them that when she returned home from work, she discovered her son was wearing nothing but a robe while greeting her in the hallway, which she found odd. Then, she went to his bedroom and found McFarland III hiding in his closet, so she called the police. When officers arrived, she told them McFarland III was still on the scene, so they detained and Mirandized him. Under Miranda, McFarland waived his rights and agreed to provide officers with a statement. McFarland III stated that he and the 16-year-old male met about three years ago via Instagram and met in person at a concert sometime last year. McFarland III showed officers their messages from today, coordinating how and when he would come to the residence. Then, McFarland III said that they both received and performed oral sex to each other. McFarland III also noted that he “licked his butthole” but did not anally penetrate him. On McFarland III’s Snapchat, he and the 16-year-old exchanged explicit photos and talked about what sexual acts they wanted to do. McFarland III was taken into custody for statutory rape.
William McFarland III was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on June 3rd, charged with statutory rape. A judicial commissioner set his bond at $10,000.
