    Austin man behind 3D-printed gun company charged with child sex assault

    AUSTIN — Cody Wilson, the Austin man who owns controversial 3D-printed gun company Defense Distributed, has been accused of sexually assaulting a child, an affidavit obtained by KVUE reveals.

    During a forensic interview with the Center with Child Protection on Aug. 27, the victim told counselors she met Wilson through the website, SugarDaddyMeet.com. Court documents show Wilson used the profile, "Sanjuro," and told the victim that he was a "big deal." During the conversation, he also identified himself as "Cody Wilson." Police said the two exchanged cell phone numbers and continued their conversations using the Apple iMessage service on her phone.
    Hmm. Victim is only described as “a child under 17.”

    Guess someone hated the fact that he won his case.... My tin foil hat is coming loose.

    A disclosure in a forensic interview by the girl corroborated by surveillance footage showing him meeting the girl in a parking lot driving one of his company cars and more footage at the hotel showing them together. Likely more corroboration through text messages and records of this escort service website. It sounds like Cody Wilson made some terrible choices and is about to face the consequences. I don't know what the laws are in Texas but if you pay a person under the age of 18 for sex in VT, even if the person is over the age of consent and the sex is consensual, you can be charged with human trafficking and face up to life in prison.

    I'll be damned if I didn't think the same thing.

    Gotta wonder if he was detected independently or whether someone was watching and waiting for him to screw up.

    Happenstance, Coincidence or Enemy Action?

    Yes! Sounds like he had a thing for whores and someone figured out a way to get at him. Sorry, but I have zero faith in coincidences involving “High profile” people who piss off government entities. Wonder what the sexual assault charge stems from. Prosecutor trying to scare him into a plea or was there truly assault aka the girl changed her mind and he didn’t like the no. If the latter he needs to have his nuts blow torched off.

    Amazing, just how stupid folks are. They get the spot light focused on them by pissing off various government entities and then do stupid stuff like pick up potential whores. WTF?? Perfect time to lay low and even use turn signals in your own driveway.

    Effing idiot.

    The name of the website sounds like something off Reno 911.

    Those are all good questions. Why was the affidavit leaked before he was arrested ?

    Why hasn’t he been arrested yet ?

    Because he's in Taiwan. From ArsTechnica:

    On Wednesday morning, a county judge signed the arrest warrant for 3D-printed gun rights activist Cody Wilson, who is accused of sexually assaulting an unnamed underage girl.

    On Wednesday afternoon, the Austin Police Department told the public that Wilson still wasn't in custody. The Defense Distributed founder's last known whereabouts are Taipei, Taiwan, and he skipped his flight back to the States. Authorities believe he received a tip about the new allegations.

    "We know Mr. Wilson frequently travels for business," Commander Troy Officer, of APD’s Organized Crime Division, told assembled press shortly after 2pm. "We don't know why he went to Taiwan, but we do know that he was informed that he was being investigated."
    ETA:

    The girl's parents also allowed the police to search the girl's iPhone. There, authorities found numerous messages and links to SugarDaddyMeet.com, the website where Wilson and the girl apparently met.

    Police ultimately matched a Texas driver’s license of Wilson, who allegedly went by the handle "Sanjuro," with Sanjuro’s profile picture on the website.

    Wilson and the girl exchanged messages first through SugarDaddyMeet and later via iMessages. Reportedly, he eventually told the girl that he was a "big deal." When she attempted to learn more about him, the girl found numerous news articles about the digital firearms activist.

    She was interviewed a second time on August 30 by Austin police, and at that time she told authorities she and Wilson had exchanged nude photos of one another.

    I don't know what to think about the timing of all this. If the cops can produce a nude photo of him from a minor's phone that passes expert scrutiny for altering, then screw him, though.
