DUBUQUE, Iowa — Robert Thomas Even, 55, was arrested Friday afternoon on a felony charge of Housing Prisoner for Other Agency, according to Dubuque arrest records.

The arrest occurred at approximately 2:00 p.m. on March 27, 2026, at 3265 Theda Drive. It was documented under agency report AR 2026001998 and handled by Officer C.G. Egdorf.

This charge typically means Even is being held in the Dubuque Law Enforcement Center on behalf of another law enforcement agency due to an active warrant, detainer, or request for extradition from another jurisdiction. It does not reflect new criminal activity in Dubuque itself.

Even, who resides at the Theda Drive address, has a prior federal conviction from 2016 for receipt of child pornography. Public records link him to the Dubuque area as a registered sex offender.

He is presumed innocent of any unresolved matters. Bond and next court steps will depend on the underlying warrant or charges from the requesting agency.

No additional details were released about the specific reason for the hold. Further information may become available through Dubuque County court records or the originating jurisdiction.

This report is based on publicly available arrest logs as of March 27, 2026. Arrest does not imply guilt; all individuals are entitled to due process.
