March 2009Exploitation and Enticement of Minor A California man was arrested last month after a federal warrant was obtained for his arrest for coercion and enticement. The arrest was made as a result of a 12 week investigation involving agents from the FBI, the State of Utah Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) task force and the Centerville Police Department. Centerville Police were contacted in November 2008 on a report of a missing 13 year old girl thought to be a runaway. Officers and a detective from Centerville Police began investigating and found evidence that the girl had been in contact with a man known only as “Bear” while playing the online internet game. Investigators received information that the girl may have been enticed by the man to meet him in California and that he may have purchased a bus ticket for her. Centerville Police contacted the ICAC task force to assist in the investigation. The 13 year old girl was located at the Salt Lake inter-modal hub late that evening waiting to take a Greyhound bus to Santa Rosa, California. The bus ticket was purchased with a credit card that was linked back to a 40 year old man living in Kelseyville, Ca. by the name of Robert Davison Jr. Agents from ICAC performed forensic scans on computers at the girl’s home and her cell phone. The information on the computers lead investigators to believe that Mr. Davison was engaging in sexually explicit conversations and intended to have the girl go to California for sexually related purposes. Robert Davison Jr. is charged with one count of interstate enticement which carries a penalty of 120 months in Federal Prison. Robert L. Davison Jr. is currently in federal custody awaiting extradition to Utah. |
