Lawrence man faces charges in Missouri

A Lawrence man charged Wednesday in Douglas County with two counts of sexual exploitation of a child also faces five similar charges in Kirksville, Mo.

Adair County, Mo., prosecutors allege that the 34-year-old man distributed obscene material involving a young man performing sex acts with a boy who appears to be under the age of 14. The Missouri charges were described in a request for an arrest warrant filed Wednesday.

The suspect remains in the Douglas County Jail on $100,000 bond. He has a preliminary hearing in Douglas County on April 30.
