The son of a former Tucson mayor who is serving more than 23 years in prison for child molestation and luring a minor for sexual exploitation is back in jail on new charges.

William James Neilson Corbett, 52, is expected to be arraigned today after being arrested Wednesday.

Corbett is charged with seven counts of sexual exploitation of a minor, according to Pima County Jail records.

Corbett was convicted in August of child molestation and sexual assault of a minor and sentenced in September to 20.5 years. He was convicted separately of luring a minor for sexual exploitation and was sentenced to 3.5 years in prison.

Tucson police did not have details of the new arrest Thursday.

Corbett worked as a bailiff for several years when his father, former Mayor James Corbett, was Pima County Superior Court clerk in the 1990s.
