Johnny W. Gray III, 27, was charged with multiple sex abuse charges involving a minor, according to an arrest report.<\/p>\n
The report states between July 1 and August 27 in Hardin County, Gray is accused of communicating with a 15-year-old victim through the social media app Discord.<\/p>\n
Police state Gray was aware of the victim\u2019s age and forced her to engage in illegal sexual activity, including sending illicit images and videos through Discord.<\/p>\n
Gray is said to have received 29 images or videos of the minor and sent 9 images of himself performing sex acts to her.<\/p>\n
According to the report, Gray had made a private server on the app to upload videos and images of the girl\u2019s sexual performances.<\/p>\n
He instructed the girl to upload the photos and videos there and to invite random men into the server to view them, according to police.<\/p>\n
Messages sent between Gray and the girl indicate she complied with Gray\u2019s instructions.<\/p>\n
Gray was arrested in Alabama on Wednesday and extradited to the Hardin County Detention Center on Thursday for arraignment.
