PIKE COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU) — Investigators have charged a woman after they say she communicated sexually with a child on Facebook Messenger.
Pike County District Attorney Ray Tonkin reports that 35-year-old Ashley Hall-Stoll of Dingmans Ferry has been charged with the following after information was obtained from a child report line:
- Unlawful contact with a minor
- Criminal use of a communication facility
- Criminal attempt to disseminate explicit sexual materials to minors,
- Criminal solicitation to disseminate explicit sexual materials to minors
- Corruption of minors
- Obstruction in child abuse cases
The affidavit states detectives learned information from the Dickson House Children’s Advocacy Center after a child reported Hall-Stoll was asking them to watch her perform oral sex on her partner via Facebook messenger.
Investigators said Hall-Stoll sent the message and then immediately deleted it. Hall-Stoll later admitted to police that she asked the minor to watch her and her partner, who was revealed to be a registered sex offender.
Hall-Stoll was taken to the Pike County Correctional Facility on a $175,000 bail.
