A Muscatine man has been arrested and charged with sexual exploitation of a minor in Muscatine County.
The Muscatine County Sheriff’s Office says on Monday, deputies were called to a home in Muscatine County following a harassment complaint. Once deputies arrived, they were informed that the caller’s daughter, a minor, had received sexually explicit messages from someone through SnapChat. They say the suspect, 23 year old Adam Delong, was attempting to get the minor to meet him.
Investigators were sent to the areas mentioned and were unable to locate Delong at that time. Investigators say the communication slowed down but then picked up again in the early afternoon, which is when investigators were able to identify Delong as the suspect. They say Delong was then located at his home in Muscatine and taken into custody.
Delong is being charged with 2nd-degree harassment, enticing a minor, indecent exposure, extortion and sexual exploitation of a minor. He is being held on a $50,000 bond in the Muscatine County Jail.
The Muscatine Sheriff’s Office is asking for those with information regarding this or similar incidents to contact Capt. Quinn Riess at 563-264-0188 ext. 115 or Det. Jake McCleary at 563-264-0188 ext. 105
