DECATUR -- A man is back in jail less than two years after serving a murder sentence. Brady Watson, 25, was arrested September 20. He's accused of inappropriately touching a 10-year-old girl.

Watson was released from prison in Cook County in May 2011. He served nearly 6 years on a second-degree murder charge.

He's now charged with two counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse. If convicted, he could face up to 7 years in jail.
