JEFFERSON COUNTY, Mo. – A 24-year-old De Soto man is accused of allowing a minor to perform a sex act on him and recording the incident.

According to the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office’s probable cause statement, the incident took place on the evening of March 3.

The sheriff’s office claims Dylan M. James picked up the 13-year-old victim in his car and drove to a nearby parking lot. The exact location was not disclosed.

The victim told investigators that James plied her with alcohol and that she blacked out.

Authorities questioned James in April. He claimed the girl was already intoxicated when he picked her up. James allegedly told deputies the victim wanted to make her girlfriend jealous by performing sex acts on him.

James said he recorded the sex act on his phone and then sent the video to the victim’s girlfriend via Facebook Messenger. He then deleted the video from his phone.

The Jefferson County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office charged James with statutory sodomy – deviate sexual intercourse (victim less than 14 years of age), second-degree promoting child pornography to a minor, and possession of child pornography. James remains jailed on a $50,000 cash-only bond. He’s due in court on May 1.
