SPRINGFIELD — The Bay County Sheriff’s Office culminated a two month investigation Friday with the arrest of a Springfield man on child solicitation charges.
Kammerynn Weeks, 20, 411 Helen Ave., Springfield, was arrested and charged with promoting the sexual performance of a child, soliciting a child for a sexual act via an electronic device and two counts of transmission of harmful materials to a minor.
During the investigation it was learned that Weeks was using three different Facebook accounts, all displaying fictitious pictures, names and information, and all designed to facilitate contact with underage girls. Once he made contact, Weeks would utilize the instant message feature to continue to communicate with them.
Weeks would then solicit the girls to send him pictures in various states of undress, telling the girls he already had obtained obscene pictures of them which he would post online if they did not send him additional pictures. With other girls, Weeks would attempt to convince them he loved them and wanted to be in a relationship with them to get pornographic images.
The investigation continues and additional charges are expected, BCSO said.
