Carl Bosque, 44, was booked at the St. Clair County jail on September 2, 2026, according to the St. Clair County Sheriff's Office inmate roster. The record lists four charges, each written by the roster with an "FTA" prefix, the abbreviation jail rosters use for a failure to appear in court: "FTA Rape 1st," "FTA Sodomy 1st," "FTA Sexual Abuse 1st," and "FTA Sex Abuse of a Child Less than 12." A failure-to-appear charge concerns a person's non-appearance in a proceeding on an underlying charge; it is not itself a finding on that underlying charge. The roster lists no bond amount and no case or docket number.

The roster publishes no statute citations, so the following is general legal context drawn from the current official Code of Alabama rather than the sections the county charged. Section 13A-6-61 defines rape in the first degree, which covers sexual intercourse by forcible compulsion, sexual intercourse with a person incapable of consent by reason of being incapacitated, and sexual intercourse by a person sixteen or older with a person under twelve; it is a Class A felony. Section 13A-6-63 defines sodomy in the first degree in parallel terms — engaging in sodomy by forcible compulsion, with a person incapable of consent by reason of being incapacitated, or by a person sixteen or older with a person under twelve — also a Class A felony. Section 13A-6-66 defines sexual abuse in the first degree as subjecting another person to sexual contact by forcible compulsion, or where that person is incapable of consent by reason of being incapacitated, a Class C felony. Section 13A-6-69.1 defines sexual abuse of a child less than twelve years old as a person sixteen or older subjecting a person under twelve to sexual contact, a Class B felony. These descriptions explain what the statutes cover; they are not findings that Bosque committed any element of them, and any penalty they carry would apply only upon conviction.

A booking record is a public record of an arrest and charges. It is not a conviction, and Bosque is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in court. No plea or case disposition is recorded for this booking.
