A McMinn County convicted sex offender was arrested Friday for allegedly raping his 15-year-old daughter, authorities said.

According to a news release from McMinn County Sheriff Joe Guy, William Eugene Holcomb, 46, County Road 882 was charged with rape, incest and violations of court-ordered sex offender requirements.

"Holcomb confessed to the incidents during an interview on Friday, and was placed under arrest," Guy said.

The sheriff said McMinn County Sheriff's Office detectives investigated a referral from the Department of Children's Services that Holcomb raped his 15-year-old daughter. The victim made statements that were referred to DCS personnel, who then contacted the sheriff's office, Guy said.

"This is another case where DCS was very instrumental in gathering information and notifying us quickly," the sheriff said. "This led to a quicker investigation and arrest."

According to the sheriff's office, Holcomb is a convicted sex offender listed on Tennessee's Sex Offender Registry.

The sheriff said the aggravated rape charge is a Class A felony and the incest charge is a Class C felony. Holcomb is being held on a $101,000 bond pending a McMinn County General Sessions Court hearing.
