'How old is your daughter?': Man looking to sexually assault, cannibalize young girls posts ad on dark web
21-year-old Alexander Barter was arrested and charged with a slew of offenses over plans to commit necrophilia and cannibalism
A Texas man has been arrested after an undercover operation uncovered his intent to sexually assault and murder a minor. 21-year-old Alexander Nathan Barter was taken in by the authorities following his communications with an undercover officer where he allegedly revealed his desire to engage in explicitly sexual activities with a young girl.
According to an affidavit obtained by KTRE, Barter posted an advertisement on the dark web asking anyone interested in allowing him to commit necrophilia and cannibalism to contact him. He provided two encrypted email addresses at which he could be reached. An undercover special agent working with the Texas Department of Public Safety came across the post and took things forward with the 21-year-old.
