This FBI and @TheJusticeDept (https://x.com/TheJusticeDept) just received a guilty plea in a multi-state investigation involving the sexual exploitation of children. Last spring, our local partners in Toledo, Ohio arrested a subject Brett Tooman after he allegedly traveled to the area to sexually abuse a 7-year-old girl.
That investigation ultimately led to multiple other individuals, including one subject, Lincoln Erickson, who was working as a medical resident at a Michigan hospital. Erickson had been linked to the same case receiving AI-generated child pornography and discussing traveling to sexually abuse children.
This FBI arrested Mr. Erickson in December. This week, Mr. Erickson pled guilty to those charges. More lives saved thanks to FBI investigators and partners’ relentless work protecting kids.
