Medicine Hat man charged with sexual exploitation of preteen Tennessee girl
A Medicine Hat man has been arrested after allegedly sexually exploiting a young Tennessee girl.
A lengthy joint investigation by ALERT’s internet child exploitation unit and the Internet Crimes Against Children task force of the Williamson County Sheriff’s Office concluded with the arrest of the 38-year-old at his Medicine Hat home.
The suspect allegedly coerced the youth into sharing sexually explicit photos via multiple online chat applications while purporting to be a 13-year-old youth, according to an ALERT news release on Friday.
The offences date back to 2021 when the victim was just 11 years old.
