Morgan Stapp, the lady, is charged with significant federal offences, including attempted child trafficking.
The investigation started after Snapchat’s security systems detected a discussion in which Stapp allegedly gave her 7-month-old kid to someone in return for cash, according to the New York Post. According to reports, the communication took place on November 1, 2024, and federal officials were notified right after. Concerns were further raised when Stapp allegedly discussed payment arrangements and disclosed that she lived alone in the flagged exchange. After receiving the Snapchat complaint, FBI federal agents set up a meeting with Stapp at her home in Indianapolis.
Stapp allegedly denied ever using Snapchat when questioned. But after obtaining a warrant to access her account, police discovered that only one mobile device had been used to log in. Thousands of messages between October 29 and November 1 were found on her account, some of which included offers to trade obscene photos in exchange for money, allegedly to purchase baby necessities. At least 81 messages examined throughout the investigation indicated attempts to raise money through improper and perhaps predatory content, according to FBI confirmation. Since then, these texts have taken centre stage in the federal prosecution.
Stapp is accused of attempting to engage in child trafficking and was taken into custody on July 8. She has a $100,000 bond and is being held at the Marion County Jail. September 15 is the date of her upcoming court appearance. Particularly in relation to the use of social media platforms for online safety and exploitation prevention, the case has attracted public attention and alarm. Authorities stressed the value of digital platform responsibility in spotting and stopping possible exploitation and commended Snapchat for its early reporting. Stapp might be subject to severe federal fines if convicted. Investigations into the case are still ongoing…CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>
