Ron Bultongez arrest – Ex-American Idol contestant charged after 'having sex with underage child' in Texas

FORMER American Idol contestant Ron Bultongez has been arrested for multiple counts of sex with a minor.

The singer, who made it far along the 2018 season, was arrested in Grapevine, Texas after he allegedly turned himself in on July 15.


Bultongez, 25, is facing four charges of sex with a minor under the age of 17 on four different occasions.

The Tarrant County DA's Office's charging documents say the incidents occurred between December 2020 and February 2021, according to TMZ.

Bultongez was released from custody after he posted a $50,000 bond a few days following his arrest.

He has not yet appeared in court to face charges.


Bultongez was contracted by both Hollywood Records and Sony RCA UK, but both have since dropped him.

He spoke about starting his own album in July 2020.

"I think it’s about time to start working on my debut album," Bultongez said.

"I was tied down for about two years," he continued. "Those post-TV show contracts are brutal. I dealt with a bunch of crap that kept me from releasing anything."

He also added he had over 100 original songs he was waiting to release.
