Daniel J. Lowhorn, a Baptist pastor at Midway Baptist Church in Tennessee stands charged with 14 counts of sexual exploitation of minors.
Reportedly, the alleged offenses were committed via the Internet, and computers were seized yesterday at Lowhorn's home when McCullough, TBI agents, and Putnam Sheriff's Detectives Shane Higgenbotham and Jimmy Patterson executed a search warrant there.
McCullough said the charges against Lowhorn are as follows: two counts of solicitation of a minor; 10 counts of solicitation of a minor to observe sexual conduct; one count of attempted sexual exploitation of a minor; and one count of attempted especially aggravated sexual exploitation of a minor.
The alleged crimes were committed via computer. Lowhorn was caught by a female law enforcement agent posing as a young girl. I do not know why people think using their computers on the Internet is anonymous. To people in the know, you stand out like a well lighted billboard.
I found this story on Onanite.
