Accused Pervert Sought In Sex Tape Case

SEPTEMBER 28--The man identified today as a 'person of interest' in the videotaped sexual abuse of a young girl is wanted in Nevada for allegedly assaulting a six-year-old girl. Chester Arthur Stiles, 34, has been a fugitive since early-2004, when a Las Vegas judge issued an arrest warrant charging him with engaging in a lewd act with a minor. Details of that alleged sex assault are contained in a federal criminal complaint filed in late-July in U.S. District Court in Nevada (Stiles was charged with traveling interstate to avoid prosecution in the Las Vegas case). According to FBI Agent David King, Stiles fled after learning of the Las Vegas arrest warrant from relatives. In a press conference today, investigators identified Stiles (pictured above) as a 'person of interest' in connection with the videotaped attack of a child they identified as 'Madison.' The videotape of the harrowing attack was seized from another man who is now jailed on child pornography charges, but is not suspected of involvement in production of the tape. The man claimed to have found the video in the Nevada desert, an assertion that police have openly questioned. (1 page)
