ARLINGTON, TX -- A 24-year-old Arlington trucker has been charged with producing child pornography and traveling across state lines to meet a minor after he allegedly forced a 15-year-old Texas girl to make child porn. Javier Joiner was arrested last week after picking up the girl in Texas and transporting her to Illinois, the Dallas Morning News reported.
Joiner allegedly met the girl online in September and traveled with her through Dec. 6. During their time together, Joiner "allegedly filmed and photographed sexual activities with the victim, which he's accused of sharing electronically," the Arlington Voice reported. When the girl tried to end their relationship, Joiner allegedly left her at a rest stop on Interstate 55 near Lincoln, Illinois. He was later arrested on Interstate 55, the Voice added.
