A California man has been accused of using Microsoft's Xbox Live to lure a 14-year-old boy to a park where he molested the minor.
Ronnie Brendan Watts, 26, of Placerville, California has yet to enter a plea as of yesterday regarding charges that include using the Internet to solicit a minor.
The correspondence between the two individuals occurred during October and November of last year via Xbox Live. Apparently, the relationship involved not only chat over Xbox Live, but also e-mails and lewd video clips of Watts.
Eventually, the boy gave Watts his phone number and home address, and they met in a park in November where the abuse occurred. Watts' arrest took place on December 15, and his Xbox, laptop and assortment of cameras were seized by police.
Watts is currently free on bail.
