The case unfolded last summer when concerned parents stumbled upon troubling messages on their child’s phone, leading them to alert the authorities. Swift action was taken, and local law enforcement assumed the role of the teenager, successfully luring Stafford to a park in Iron Mountain. Upon arrival, law enforcement swiftly moved in, apprehending the perpetrator and ensuring the safety of potential victims.

U.S. Attorney Mark Totten expressed his satisfaction with the verdict, stating, “Mr. Stafford preyed on minors, and today he was held accountable. Our office considers the protection of our most vulnerable citizens, especially children, to be of utmost importance. Those who exploit children and believe they can evade justice should think twice.”
