IMMOKALEE MAN ARRESTED ON COMPUTER SEX CRIME
On Friday, September 24, 2021 at approximately 12:50 pm, Hendry County Sheriff Office Criminal Investigation Division along with the Collier County Sheriff’s Office took 41 year old, Michael Cuevas, of Immokalee into custody on a Hendry County arrest warrant for the Use of a Computer to Seduce, Solicit or Lure a Child to Commit Sexual Conduct.
In April of 2021, 41 year old Cuevas began a Facebook private message with a 15 year old LaBelle, male as a friend on Facebook. During the conversation, Cuevas asked the child to travel to Immokalee to hang out with him. Cuevas stated to the child that they would “smoke weed and drink” and offered the child oral sex.
This all took place after the child told Cuevas that he was 15 years old. An undercover investigation was conducted, and through ongoing communication, Cuevas attempted to lure the undercover detective, who Cuevas believed was a 15 year old male, to meet with him in Immokalee at a local motel.
Thru this continued investigation Hendry County Detectives obtained an arrest warrant. Once the warrant was acquired, the undercover detective contacted Cuevas for the last time and it was then that Cuevas agreed to meet the 15 year old at a motel in Immokalee.
Hendry County Detectives met with Collier County Sheriff’s Office and together responded to the Budget Inn Motel. It was there that Detectives made contact Cuevas when he arrived at the agreed upon location taking him into custody and placed him under arrest on the Hendry County Warrant.
Cuevas is currently being held in the Hendry County Jail with a $50,000.00 bond on charges of Obscene Communication (Use of Computer to Seduce/Solicit/Lure a Child.
