According to the Houston Chronicle, a Kentucky man has been arrested and charged with promoting child pornography, online solicitation of a minor, and sexual performance of a child after he persuaded an 11-year old girl to send him nude pictures of herself while they played multiplayer games over PSN, the free online network on the PlayStation 3.
The man, Anthony Scott O'Shea, 24, of Somerset, Ky. faces extradition to Texas since the girl lives in Houston.
The court documents say O'Shea met the girl during a round of Warhawk and over several weeks got her to send him naked pictures and "perform for him via a Webcam." He then shared the photos online with others.
The girl added that O'Shea "kept pressuring her for more pictures and wanted to set up a meeting with her in order to engage in sexual activity." She eventually told her parents the entire story and the police were contacted immediately.
