The filing in U.S. District Court at Texarkana shows prosecutors plan to offer evidence that Alamo "engaged in a sexual relationship with not only the charged victims ... but also other women and underage girls."

Interim U.S. Attorney Debbie Groom told The Associated Press that document is a required form to provide defense lawyers notice that prosecutors intend to use evidence gathered about crimes outside of an indictment at trial.

Alamo, 74, faces a 10-count indictment accusing him of taking underage girls across state lines for sex. Lawyers for Alamo said they didn't know about the filing Monday.
