Las Cruces Man Arrested For Soliciting Minors Online:

Man arrested for Internet exploitation:

Police: 21-year-old sexually exploited children:

Ears over there is 21-year-old Michael Thurlo of Las Cruces, New Mexico. That means The Crosses in case you were wondering.

Anyway, he’s been charged with solicitation of minors over MySpace. One girl was a 13-year-old from Tehachapi, California and the other was a 14-year-old from Arizona.

The mother of the 13-year-old girl allegedly found explicit pictures of Thurlo on her daughter’s cell phone. Conversely, police in Las Cruces say that Thurlo was in possession of pictures of one of the girls’ genitals and an explicit video of her.

The girl from Arizona is said to have met Thurlo personally while visiting family in New Mexico. The mother says that she thought that Thurlo was 16 or 17.

I never understood why scumbags like this want to have sex with underage girls. When you’re 21 you’re old enough to go bars and meet women your age. Then again I’m sure that you’re so much of a cretin that girls your own age want nothing to do with you.
