Man Indicted for Exploiting Children
A Bradford man has been indicted by a federal grand jury for violating laws relating to the sexual exploitation of children.
33-year-old Michael Begin was arrested in February.
The FBI said a search conducted in connection with the arrest revealed that Begin possessed a knife, handcuffs and a condom. He told authorities he planned to take the girl to his residence in a Bradford hotel and engage in sexual activity.
Authorities say the girl's mother found sexually explicit messages from Begin on her daughter's MySpace page, saved them and reported it to Bradford City Police.
The FBI and the City of Bradford Police Department, under the direction of Chief Mike Close, conducted the investigation leading to the indictment in this case.
