ANADARKO – A former Apache emergency medical technician pleaded no contest Jan. 15 to 76 felony counts accusing him of sexually molesting his children when they were younger.
Timothy Darien Clauson, 62, was charged on Sept. 15, 2022, with 64 counts of child sexual abuse, 10 counts of rape by instrumentation, and two counts of first-degree rape. The crimes are alleged to have occurred between July 1, 2014, and March 1, 2020.
Clauson is scheduled to be sentenced March 12 by District Judge Kory Kirkland. The maximum sentences range from 64 life sentences coupled with fines of $500 to $5,000 each, and 12 terms of life without parole, court records show.
He remains in the Caddo County Jail in lieu of $1 million bond.
Clauson moved from Apache to Oregon in 2022 and was living in Astoria, Oregon. There he was arrested, tried and convicted on charges related to the sexual abuse of his five children during their childhoods.
Clauson pleaded guilty in Clatsop County Circuit Court to sexual abuse in the first and second degrees, unlawful penetration in the first degree, and using a child in a display of sexually explicit content. The abuse spanned 20 years, investigators said.
Clauson was sentenced Aug. 1, 2024, to 12 years in an Oregon prison and 20 years of probation. He was booked into the Caddo County Jail on Nov. 21, 2024.
Southwest Ledger left a message with the Caddo County Sheriff’s Department, asking how Clauson ended up back in Oklahoma after he decamped to Oregon, but no response was received.
The myriad charges against Clauson read like a script from a hardcore pornography film.
