AFFIANT HAS PROBABLE CAUSE FOR SAID BELIEF BY REASON OF THE FOLLOWING FACTS: 1. On Friday June 20, 2014 Hurst Public Service Officer Travis Hiser generated a Hurst Police Department offense report from a report forwarded to the Hurst Police Department by the NCMEC- National Center for Missing and Exploited Children and the Dallas Police Department Child Exploitation Unit. Officer Hiser reviewed the report and stated the following; On June 8, 2014 the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children received a Cyber Tip, number 250603, from lnstagram. The tip was reporting child pornography related to Username "littleboy8" and Page 3 3, 30 I II: email address of repodisk@hotmail.com, lP ress 50.11.86.108. A child pornography jpeg was uploaded to the IP address on June 7, 2014 at 00:46 UTC. Said offense has been reported to the Hurst Police Department and has been assigned report number 2014003807 for Possession of Child Pornography. Said report has been reviewed by your affiant, Chad Woodside. . NCMEC did a Geo-lockup on this IP address and it returned to Fort Worth, Texas, Clear wireless. NCMEC conducted a search on the email address "repodisk@hotmail.com" and found the following post made by user "repodisk" on the forum "bedwettingABDL.com; am a 26 years old daddy looking for a baby boy. I want to change you (wet or messy) feed you bathe you and play with you. I am looking for temporary or permanent. I want my baby to be smooth and under 21. My baby will be treated like a real baby. If your interested or have questions email me at NCMEC found another posting by "repodisk" in the same forum that stated am a baby boy looking for a mommy daddy babysitter. I am looking for permanent or temporary situation?. Another search through Google on "repodisk" shows 27*M*Hurst*TX". A search on Spokeo website on repodisk@hotmail.com found a link to the name Randy Wesson. NCMEC records showed that Grapevine Police Department sent in a report with concerns on a Randy Wesson in 2012. That report states that Randy Wesson was an employee at the Sea Life Aquarium and while working picked up a 4 year old male child. Wesson then approached the child?s mother and asked if he could babysit the male. The case was investigated but charges were never filed. Your affiant obtained a copy of the police report. . NCMEC then forwarded the pornography tip and files to Dallas Police Department Child Exploitation Unit on approximately June 12, 2014. The case was sent to Analyst Raymond Irvine and eventually assigned to Detective Gregory Dugger. After reading the NCMEC report that referred to Grapevine Detective Rebecca Graves, Detective Dugger called Detective Graves and spoke to her about the case. She stated that the suspect, Randy Wesson, lived a ?in Hurst and instructed him to forward the report to Hurst Police. Detective Dugger then forwarded this report and files to Hurst Detective Greg Noone who instructed Public Service Officer Hiser to take the report. Page 4 4. Your affiant obtained and reviewed this and'all documents. Your affiant ran Randy Wesson through Hurst databases and a complete check through Wesson?s Texas driver?s license showed him to live at -, Hurst, Texas. Your affiant had a medical issue and was off work the next 9 weeks. A check on ?in Hurst showed the house to belong to Lloyd and Debra Wesson. On Wednesday November 12, 2014, your affiant went by the residence to speak with Randy, Lloyd or Debra Wesson. Lloyd "Bruce" Wesson answered the door and invited me in. No one else was home at the time. Bruce stated that it was his son Randy who probably looked at the child pornography over the internet. He stated that he suspected Randy of looking at child pornography and said he suspected that Randy was gay. He said that when Randy is at his house he usually gets on the internet using his phone, however he does occasionally use the desktop. Bruce continued to talk about Randy and their family and then said, "Can I tell you something strange?? He said Randy showed up in February 2014 with a 12 year old boy. Bruce told your affiant that Randy told him and his wife that a female called him from El Paso, Texas and told him that the 12 year old child was his child, that she did not want him anymore and he needed to come get the child. Randy told his parents that he had a DNA test done in El Paso and the child was in fact his, so he went to El Paso and picked the child up. Bruce stated that Randy lives with them on the weekends and in Fort Worth at -, Fort Worth, Texas, during the week. Bruce explained that the house on David Drive belongs to his father?in- law, C. A. Presley, who is currently in a nursing home. Bruce told your affiant that he pays all the bills at the house on David Drive and pays Randy's cell phone which is He said that the boy, Matthew, lives with Randy. Bruce said that Randy enrolled Matthew in school at Hurst Hills Elementary School at the beginning of this year (August 2014) but kept him out of school from February 2014 to August 2014. Bruce told your affiant that Randy changed Matthews?s last name to Wesson. Bruce had no clue how Randy enrolled Matthew into school without proper documentation. Your affiant asked Bruce if he has ever questioned Matthew about his past or his mother. He said, "Yes, but Matthew will not talk about it?. Bruce then paused and said, "Can i tell you something very weird?? He said Matthew wears diapers at night. He stated Matthew was 6'0" tall and spoke three languages, English, Spanish and German. Page 5 $10 '5 Chin Your affiant told Bruce that this would be i stigated and meanwhile he agreed not to say anything to Randy. . On Thursday November 13, 2014, your affiant went to Hurst Hills Elementary School, 525 Billie Ruth Lane, Hurst, and contacted school Principal Elizabeth Sanders. Sanders stated that Matthew Wesson was enrolled at her school. She stated that if a child enrolled and did not have a birth certificate or proof of prior education, it would be flagged and sent to her. Sanders said Wesson was not flagged at time of enrollment. Your affiant was able to obtain Matthew's enrollment documents on Friday November 14, 2014. Your affiant was provided a birth certificate in the name "Matthew Drew Wesson", a "Student Enrollment Form? which contained emergency contacts, address, etc. and Matthew Wesson?s vaccination records. There were no documents on Matthew?s last school attended. When your affiant questioned this, Sanders stated it is because the father said that Matthew came from Mexico. She said they only attempt to get prior school records if they are from within the United States. Your affiant later examined the Enrollment Form. The form states that Matthew's date of birth is March 25, 2002, he resides at Hurst, Texas, his father and emergency contact was Randy Wesson and grandparent?s information, Debbie and Bruce Wesson were listed as people the school could share information with. There was no other parent information on the report. Your affiant noticed that Randy listed his contact information as ?repodisk@hotmail.com? and his phone number as-. Your affiant then examined the vaccination record. The records showed a total of 12 shots and all were given between the dates of July 15, 2013 and July 28, 2014. Your affiant noticed that most of the "parent of guardian" signatures appeared to be 3 Wendy Callahan and a Pat Crutchfield. . Your affiant then examined the birth certificate in the name Matthew Drew Wesson. The certificate was from Ohio Department of Health/Vital Statistics. This seemed odd since Bruce Wesson, Debbie Wesson nor Randy Wesson ever-showed to live in Ohio, according to Accurint database. The certificate had the number 02?92501 8 in the top right hand corner. Your affiant did confirm the name of the hospital and doctor listed on the certificate were actually in Cleveland, Ohio. The name listed as the mother on the certificate is "Valeria Lagos Villanueva?, date of birth December 29, 1966, age 36. Your affiant checked Page 6 guns this name and date of birth through databa aal with no records found. The father listed on the certificate was Randy Ray Wesson, date of birth January 2, 1986, age 16. According to the Texas Department of Public Safety Driver?s License Division on Randy Ray Wesson, he is issued Texas driver?s license number 02632183 however his date of birth shows to be February 1, 1986, not January 2, 1986 as the certificate shows. The address on the certificate for the parents shows Akron, Ohio. A search of that address in Accurint shows no links with that address and Randy, Bruce or Matthew Wesson or Valeria Villanueva. Suspecting that this birth certificate was counterfeit, your affiant called the Ohio Department of Health/Vital Statistics and spoke to Ed Quinn. Your affiant gave Mr. Quinn all the names, numbers and address listed on the certificate. He stated that the number assigned to the certificate shows he found nothing searching Matthew Drew Wesson, Matthew Lagos or Matthew Villanueva or date of birth of March 25, 2002 (Matthew?s birth date listed on the certificate). Mr. Quinn also showed under the mother?s name, running it several different ways and by the date of birth. Mr. Quinn requested that your affiant email a copy of the birth certificate to the compliance department and they could confirm for sure if the certificate was counterfeit. Your affiant sent them a copy of the certificate on Friday November 14, 2014. Angela Stephens with the Ohio Department of Health/Vital Statistics Compliance Department viewed the said birth certificate and on November 17, 2014 stated in an email that a statewide check of their database on Matthew Drew Wesson, date of birth March 25, 1986, born to Valeria Villanueva and Randy Wesson resulted in no records found. She said there was also no record for Randy Wesson or Valeria Villanueva. The certificate number 02-925018 is actually assigned to a birth certificate in Ohio, however it is issued to a person with a different name and date of birth. . Your affiant has solicited the assistance of the FBI, DPS Special Crimes, US. Immigration, Child Protective Services and the Tarrant County District Attorney?s Office on this case. Subsequent investigation through the Tarrant County Appraisal District on?, Fort Worth, Texas shows the owner to be Cornelius A. Presley. Presley?s information shows Hurst, Texas. Your affiant drove to this address and observed a grey Nissan SUV, bearing Texas license plate A registration check through the Department Page 7 . WI (as of Motor Vehicles on license shows th ner to be Randy Wesson at Hurst, Texas. Your affiant contacted Bruce Wesson by phone on Friday November 14, 2014 and he confirmed that Randy does drive a grey Nissan SUV. Bruce also told your affiant that Randy does have a desktop computer, a laptop computer and possibly an IPAD inside his residence at -, Fort Worth, Texas. Subsequent investigation through database LP Police on Randy Wesson?s phone number listed on the school enrollment form of shows that it is an account belonging to Randy Wesson. Bruce also confirmed that he, his wife nor Randy have ever lived in the state of Ohio. 8. On Friday November 14, 2014, your affiant viewed the photograph in evidence that was seized by lnstagram and forwarded to NCMEC, Dallas Police Department and eventually Hurst Police Department. The photograph depicts a young nude male that appears to be approximately 10-12 years of age, receiving oral sex from a much older male. Although you cannot see the young male's genitals, you can see the older male?s partial face in the area of the young male?s genitals which "depicts patently offensive representations or descriptions of ultimate sexual acts". 9. On Monday November 17, 2014, your affiant called Dallas Police Detective Greg Dugger and asked him if he did a subpoena for the CLEAR IP address. He said he did not, but that he would obtain the information as soon as possible for your affiant. 10.0n Monday November 17, 2014, your affiant called Bruce Wesson and asked him if what internet service Randy Wesson uses. He stated that he used to have CLEAR WIRELESS, however he now has Charter Communications. Your affiant asked Bruce if Randy ever brought his CLEAR mobile device to his (Bruce?s) house to use the internet. He said he did not think so. 1 1 .Subsequent investigation through the Texas Department of Public Safety Driver?s License Division on 3 Randy Ray Wesson, a white male whose date of birth is February 1, 1986, shows that he is currently issued Texas driver?s license number resides at Hurst, Texas, is 5?8" tall, 135 pounds, has brown hair and hazel eyes. Page 8 3w I (a 5 12.8ubsequent investigation through the Tex L'rime Information Center and the National Crime Information Center on Randy Ray Wesson, a white male whose date of birth is February 1, 1986, shows no record. Based on your affiant?s knowledge of digital photography, digital cameras, computers and the knowledge of personnel with whom your affiant has consulted on the issue, your affiant knows that effective searches and seizures of evidence from digital cameras (storage media) and computers require that these devices be processed by a forensic expert in a controlled environment. This is true because: computer storage devices, digital cameras, digital storage devices, removable storage devices can all store thousands of digital images and information. The device can store and delete images as directed by the user. Image files can be named by the user. Searching the digital camera, computers, and digital photography storage devices for criminal evidence is a technical process requiring a skilled professional in a controlled environment. The search is signed to protect the integrity of the evidence and recover hidden, erased photographic images. Your affiant ask that any of these devices be sent to a forensic expert to be examined. Your affiant is asking for this warrant because your affiant has reason to believe and does believe that Randy Ray Wesson possesses child pornography in his residence, on his computer and on his phone. Your affiant also believes that Randy Ray Wesson presented a counterfeit Government Record to the Hurst Hills Elementary School with the intent to hide the true identity of the young male living with him, known as Matthew Wesson. Your affiant has reason to believe that Matthew Wesson is not Randy Wesson?s son and Randy Wesson?s residence contains documents that have Matthew?s true identity. A search of Instagram shows that Randy Wesson and Mathew Wesson both have accounts. Matthew?s last post was 38 weeks ago, putting the time around February, 2014. Said post also show that "repodisk" and Matthew are friends. Since Randy Wesson no longer uses CLEAR WIRELESS (which can be used mobile), your affiant believes that Randy Wesson uses the internet at his residence to download photographs and store photographs on his home computer, laptop or phone. WHEREFORE, Affiant asks for issuance of a warrant that will authorize him to search said suspected place and premises for said property and seize the Page 9 same.
