CHILD MOLESTATION ARREST MADE

Mark Kristian Stringer    


On January 17, 2016 Levy County Sheriff’s Office investigators arrested Mark Kristian Stringer (10-10-56) of Williston on multiple charges including video voyeurism and 2 counts of lewd or lascivious battery of a minor child.  Investigators responded to the home and ultimately arrested Stringer based on a report initially made to the Florida Department of Children and Families Abuse Hotline.

LCSO investigators determined Stringer used covertly placed video equipment inside his own home to record young girls as they exited the shower. Stringer confessed to placing the cameras. Investigators took statements from several minor children who had been inside Stringer’s home.  According to the victims, Stringer had been molesting children over a period of years.  Investigators believe Stringer used opportunities he created himself to perpetrate these crimes. 

LCSO personnel believe there could be additional victims or others who have information which could assist in this investigation.  Investigators are requesting anyone who may have information about Mark Stinger to call LCSO at 352-486-5111 and request to speak to Sgt. Mike Narayan. Should callers wish to remain anonymous, please call Crime Stoppers at 1-877-349-8477.
