WASHINGTON — U.S. Immigration and
Customs Enforcement's (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) is urgently
seeking the public's help to identify a suspected child pornography producer
and rescue at least two underage victims.
This week, HSI's Child Exploitation
Investigations Unit's Victim Identification Program obtained a "Jane
Doe" arrest warrant in the U.S. District Court for the District of
Columbia for the suspect. The unit believes that Jane Doe has produced child
pornography videos featuring herself and an unidentified adult male engaging in
sexual contact with two minor victims: one between the ages of 5 and 7; the
other between the ages of 3 and 5.
Jane Doe is described by HSI special
agents as a Caucasian female, between the ages of 25 and 35. She has a medium
build, dark brown hair and blue eyes. She has a large mole on the back of her
left thigh. Although her whereabouts are unknown, HSI special agents
investigating this case believe she lives somewhere in the United States.
HSI special agents in Los Angles
initially discovered the videos during a computer forensics examination of
material in an unrelated child pornography case. The material was submitted to
the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC), the national
clearinghouse for child sexual exploitation material. The center determined
that the victims have not yet been identified or rescued.
Jane Doe's information and photos are
being distributed through law enforcement channels by the HSI's Victim
Identification Unit, HSI Los Angeles and NCMEC in a unified effort to find the
perpetrators and rescue the two children.
HSI is requesting that anyone with
information about this person contact the agency immediately, in one of two
ways:
• Call
the HSI Tip Line at 1-866-347-2423. This line is staffed 24-hours a day.
• Complete
our online tip form at www.ICE.gov/tips.
All tips will remain anonymous.
Individuals should not attempt to apprehend the suspect personally.
HSI's Victim Identification Program
seeks to rescue child victims of sexual abuse and exploitation and bring the
perpetrators to justice.
