A Florida Man is facing many charges for sex crimes after allegedly asking underage girls to allow him to smell and touch their feet in exchange for devices used for vaping.
22-year-old Brandon Michael White lives in Tarpon Springs, Florida.
According to reports, beginning last April, White started to use social media apps like Snapchat and Instagram to connect with underage females.
White allegedly sought out young ladies and asked if they would grant him permission to sniff and fondle their feet. It was reported that he additionally expressed a desire to take part in other sex acts with the girls.
The man allegedly told them that if they agreed to participate in pleasuring him, he would supply them with vape pens, in addition to the canisters of products meant for use with them. Some of the oils in the cartridges reportedly contained nicotine and others contained THC.
When the authorities were investigating the situation, they reported that they had information that led them to believe that there was more than one alleged victim and asserted that White and some of the girls had sexual encounters.
Detectives talked to White about the allegations on February 16, and the man allegedly told them that he met with more than one girl.
White was placed under arrest and booked into the Pinellas County Jail. He is facing charges for suspicion of 7 felony counts of lewd and lascivious molestation on a minor between the ages of 12-16, 2 felony counts of unlawful use of two-way communication devices, one felony count of lewd and lascivious battery on a victim under the age of 16, and one felony count of lewd and lascivious conduct on a minor under the age of 18.
