Response & intervention
The Meridian Police Dept. acting on a tip, searched the home of Douglas Winberry. Winberry was found to have a cd containing images of a female minor (age 15-16) posing in various sexual positions. Further investigation revealed that Winberry was also engaging in sexual acts with the victim and was using Craigslist to advertise her for prostitution. Watson and McKeehan were found to have previously used the same victim for advertising prostitution and had also taped themselves engaging in sexual acts with the victim. The girl was returned to her parents.
