3D gun advocate Cody Wilson charged with sexual assault
Cody Wilson, the Austin, Texas, man who set off a national debate over plastic guns by posting plans online for making them with a 3D printer, has been charged with sexual assault, according to Austin police.
An arrest warrant issued Wednesday said a juvenile woman, under the age of 17, told investigators that a 30-year-old man paid her $500 to have sex with him in mid-August at an Austin hotel. She said she met the man online and exchanged text messages. In one of them, police say, he identified himself as Cody Wilson and said he was "a big deal." The two also exchanged explicit photos of each other, she told investigators.
But Wilson was not yet in custody and his last known location was in Taiwan, police said Wednesday afternoon at a news conference.
"Today, Mr. Wilson is not in custody and his last known location by the Austin Police Department was Taipei, Taiwan," said Commander Troy Officer, of the Austin Police Department's organized crime unit. "We also know that Mr. Wilson missed a scheduled flight back to the United States."
Wilson left to Taiwan after being told by a friend of the 16-year-old victim that she had gone to police and that he was being investigated for having sex with a minor, Officer said.
