(Boise) – Attorney General Lawrence Wasden has announced investigators with his Idaho Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Unit arrested a Lewiston man Thursday, August 20, for alleged sexual exploitation of a child. The arrest follows that of another Lewiston man on Wednesday.
43-year-old Michael C. Stewart was booked into the Nez Perce County Jail following his arrest.
The Lewiston Police Department, Moscow Police Department, Idaho State Police, U.S. Marshals Service and the Nez Perce County Prosecutor’s Office assisted the ICAC Unit.
