Warrant issued for Waldron man for internet stalking of a child

On September 3rd, Pike County Investigator Jason McDonald logged into his investigative social media account and started receiving messages from username JT Stark.

Username JT allegedly sent sexual messages to an undercover cop and was thinking that he was talking to a 15 year old teenager. It was reported that on some occasions JT would send explicit photos and videos to the Undercover Cop. 

At a later time Investigator McDonald, who is using the undercover cop account, reportedly received messages from another username Justin A Stark Raminder which was later identified as 32 year old Justin Stark of Waldron, who also used username JT Stark.

McDonald then asked username Justin A Stark Raminder to send a selfie of himself blowing a kiss and JT sent one. This was proof that Stark was using a messaging app to solicit underage females. 

McDonald contacted the Waldron Police Department to verify Stark’s identity and they confirmed that it was him.

A bench warrant has been issued for Stark’s arrest on two accounts.

One count for Internet stalking of a child and one count for computer child pornography.
