The Alabama Board of Pardons and Paroles Tuesday denied parole to six violent offenders, including one sex offender and three convicted of robbery. Two were convicted for crimes in Madison County.

• PAROLE DENIED: Charles Anthony Norton is a convicted sex offender in Elmore County who already was paroled once but violated his parole. In 2008 Norton was sentenced to three years for a 2005 first-degree sexual abuse case and a 2008 case of criminal possession of a forged instrument in Elmore County. In 2010 Norton was convicted again for criminal possession of a forged instrument in Autauga County. In 2015, Norton was sentenced to 15 years for violating the sex offender registration law in Elmore County. He was released from prison early and then in 2017 was convicted of three more crimes; theft of property, theft by deception and criminal possession of a forged instrument, and sentenced to one year, six months additional prison time. Norton was paroled but then the Athens News Courier reported Feb. 23, 2019 that Norton violated parole and failed to register as a sex offender in Limestone County. Norton has served less than five years of his 15-year sentence for violating the sex offender registration law.
