pornography and indecent behavior with juveniles.

to investigate and arrest child predators,” said General Landry. “We will
neither slow down nor stop in our pursuit of those who exploit Louisiana’s
children.”

counts of sexual abuse images and/or videos of children. He was arrested and
booked into the Lafayette Parish Prison following a joint investigation between
the Louisiana Bureau of Investigation (LBI) Cyber Crime Unit, Homeland Security

Indecent Behavior with Juveniles after allegedly portraying himself as a
juvenile and initiating sexual text messages with an actual juvenile. He was
