After being stopped, Buckley told officers that he was a registered sex offender in Washington.

Buckley also told police that he moved to Oklahoma a year ago and just forgot to register. Washington and Nowata County District Attorney Will Drake confirmed with police that Buckley did not register in Washington either. It was also discovered that Buckley had not registered for Washington County.

He is currently being held over on a $50,000 bond and his next court date is set for Aug. 25^th.
