Priest At Michigan Church Arrested In Cyber Sex Sting
Internet Sting Aims To Protect Children Online
Cox said the sting is an effort to protect children when they're online, but he said authorities will need assistance from parents."These arrests show the absolute need for parents to be on guard, to be aware of what their children are watching on the Internet and know who they're communicating with. With all the benefits the Internet provides, it also provides new dangers," said Cox.He said Beas is charged with eight counts, including child sexually abusive activity, using a computer to commit a crime and using a computer to distribute obscene material. Cox also announced the arrest of a New Hudson man who had been paroled in September 2002 after serving part of a sentence for fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct. Ned H. Fauth, 44, who also faces eight counts, was arrested at his home and is accused of using his computer to set up a meeting with someone he thought was a 14-year-old girl to engage in sexual activity.Fauth (pictured, right) was arraigned in Novi on Monday.Beas was arraigned on Tuesday.
