The Federal Bureau of Investigation is seeking the public’s helping identifying and locating an individual that “may have valuable information regarding the identity of a child victim in an ongoing sexual exploitation case.”
The FBI’s Honolulu office is working with its headquarters on a nationwide alert to find the man dubbed “John Doe 29,” the FBI said Tuesday. Special Agent Tom Simon says the man is not accused of “being a child molester” but that he “may have valuable information regarding the identity of a child victim in an ongoing sexual exploitation case.”
“John Doe 29” is described as a man with a tan complexion who is likely between the ages of 30 and 45 with dark hair. In the images, he is wearing a silver ring on his left ring finger, blue and white Velcro Nike shoes, and a white, black, and red shirt.
The FBI also released a series of images that came to the bureau’s attention in 2008 when investigators discovered a series of photos traded online in which a young, blonde-haired girl is sexually abused. Among the photos was a non-exploitative image of “John Doe 29” smiling at the camera with the same girl.
The FBI says the photo could have been taken in America or abroad, and investigators have no specific information that the individual is in Hawaii or the Pacific. However, Simon said the bureau is reaching out to the public here because “we’ve hit the jackpot in the past with Hawaii media and witnesses in these cases.”
