Seriously?

Yes. Seriously.

A Mississippi police sergeant was arrested Wednesday for alleged sex crimes against children, including lustful touching, and production and distribution of child exploitation material, the FBI announced. Joshua Christopher Stockstill, 29, first appeared on the radar of investigators in February 2021, when analysts at the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) turned over video to the FBI of a man sexually abusing a child. He was heard speaking English in the footage, and had brown hair. But agents couldn’t identify the suspect, and on Wednesday they asked for the public’s help in putting a name to the face they dubbed “John Doe 44.”

Stockstill was arrested and fired from his job a few hours later, NCMEC said in a statement. He was booked into the county jail shortly after midnight early Thursday morning.



Hope...
