BOISE, Idaho — A 39-year-old Boise man has been arrested on suspicion of posting an online classified advertisement offering sex with a 3-year-old girl.
The Idaho Statesman reported that Jason Lloyd Schaber faces charges of soliciting a minor for prostitution and felony lewd conduct after Ada County deputies found videos of Schaber having sexual contact with the girl during a search of his house Thursday.
The girl was placed in the custody of the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare.
The investigation into Schaber began in mid-April after Boise police were contacted by someone who saw the ad on Craigslist. Court records say investigators were able to trace the ad back to Schaber by mid-May.
Sheriff’s spokeswoman Andrea Dearden said deputies are trying to determine if there may be other child victims.
