AUGUSTA — Three men indicted separately on sex offense charges went before a judge via video on Monday in Kennebec County Superior Court.

An indictment is not a determination of guilt, but it indicates that there is enough evidence to proceed with formal charges and a trial.

— Joseph McInnis, 57, of Oakland, was indicted on two counts of gross sexual assault and four counts of unlawful sexual contact all occurring between Jan. 1, 2011, and Jan. 31, 2012, in Oakland.

The offenses list the same girl, who was between 14 and 15 years old, as the victim.

McInnis is being held in lieu of bail, set at $50,000 cash or $100,000 worth of property. Conditions of bail ban him from contact with the victim or her family and with children under 16.

— Daniel Truman, 43, of South Gardiner, was indicted on two counts of possession of sexually explicit materials. The indictment said the children depicted in the images were under 12, and the offenses occurred on Jan. 24 in Gardiner.
