Key Report Delayed in St. Charles Sex Assault Case
Heavy caseload prevents Kane County Diagnostic Center from completing sex offender evaluation.
Attorneys in the case of a convicted sex offender accused of sexually assaulting his nephew's girlfriend will have to wait several weeks for a key report.
Gary Kluber, who has pleaded not guilty to multiple counts of criminal sex assault and sex abuse, was arrested in June after the Aurora woman reported Kluber forcibly fondled and performed a sex act on her while the pair were at a St. Charles residence.
A judge ordered Kluber to undergo a sex offender evaluation earlier this summer, but the Kane County Diagnostic Center notified the court last week that it would take up to two more months before a report on Kluber could be completed.

Kluber has previous sex abuse arrests, which landed him on the sex offender registry, and was arrested in 2010 for illegally being in a school zone. Kluber remains in the Kane County Jail on $250,000 bail and returns to court Oct. 18.
