Lawrence man booked in jail on three charges of sexual exploitation of a minor

A 44-year-old Lawrence man was booked into Douglas County Jail Friday on three charges of sexual exploitation of a minor. The arrest was made by the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, but a sheriff’s representative was unable to provide further details Friday afternoon. The booking log indicates that the alleged crimes occurred in May. The man is being held on a $50,000 bond. Formal charges have not yet been filed.

The Journal-World does not typically name sex-crime suspects unless they’re convicted.
