Natchitoches Man Arrested for Computer Aided Solicitation of a Minor

LAFAYETTE PARISH - A Natchitoches man working in Acadiana is in jail for charges relating to computer aided solicitation of a minor following a State Police investigation.

In October 2016, Detectives with the State Police Special Victims Unit in Alexandria received information indicating that 44-year-old Natchitoches resident Kory Wilson communicated with a juvenile in a sexually explicit manner, and shared images containing explicit material. During the course of the investigation, Detectives learned that Wilson used an electronic device to solicit the juvenile for sexual purposes. Based on their investigation, a warrant for Wilson’s arrest was obtained. During the investigation, it was learned Wilson was working and living at his place of employment in Acadiana.

On November 1, 2016, Louisiana State Police Detectives with assistance from the Department of Homeland Security arrested Wilson at his place of employment without incident. He was booked into the Lafayette Parish Correctional Center Jail for Indecent Behavior with a Juvenile, Computer Aided Solicitation of a Minor, and Contributing to the Delinquency of a Juvenile. This case remains under investigation.

Louisiana State Police remains committed to targeting child predators who seek to abuse children in our state and around the country. Under Colonel Mike Edmonson’s administration, the Louisiana State Police instituted the Special Victims Unit. The unit predominantly focuses on rescuing victims and delivering justice to the perpetrators of crimes involving the exploitation of children and the trafficking of humans for sex or labor. Citizens with information pertaining to crimes against children should contact the Louisiana State Police at 1-800-434-8007 or visit http://dpsweb.dps.louisiana.gov/suspicious.nsf/WebForm?OpenForm to file an online complaint
