He also faces one charge of failing to register as a sex offender in Posey County, where he lived when Evansville detectives started investigating allegations that he'd molested three Evansville boys.\nDavis had waived his right to an extradition hearing in North Dakota, where he has been held in jail since a neighbor in his duplex called the FBI after realizing Davis' true identity.\nDavis, who was convicted of child molesting charges in 1992, was one of several fugitives profiled Oct. 4 on "The Oprah Winfrey Show."
