McINTOSH, Ala. A multi-agency operation led by the McIntosh police has resulted in the arrest of four people in an online predator operation. Police say more arrests are also possible.
According to the McIntosh Police Department, seven law enforcement agencies worked together on the operation that targeted online predators.
At this time, the following people have been arrested:
Jerry Bernard King, 31, of Mobile
Michael Paul Cantrell, 42, of Citronelle
Charleston White, 31, of Citronelle
Noah Brody Weaver, 23, of Saraland
Those four people were arrested for attempting to exploit minors online and attempting to meet with them in person, according to the McIntosh police.
All were arrested and charged with transmitting obscene material to a child and solicitation of a child by computer.
“This coordinated effort was part of an ongoing initiative focused on identifying and apprehending local predators who use digital platforms to target vulnerable youth,” the police said.
The operation, which includes representatives from the McIntosh Police Department, Washington County District Attorney’s Office, Washington County Sheriff’s Office, Jackson Police Department, Creola Police Department, and Mobile Police Department, is continuing, and more arrests are expected.
A McIntosh Police spokesperson said offenders should not think that rural agencies are less capable of fighting crime than those in big cities.
“This operation sends a clear and direct message: If you believe that being in a rural area allows you to commit crimes undetected, think again,” said a spokesperson for the McIntosh Police Department. “We have the tools, resources, and interagency support to investigate and prosecute criminal activity with the same level of sophistication as any major department. If you are committing crimes in our communities, we will find you, and we will seek to prosecute you to the fullest extent of the law.”
