A Levy and Marion County Sheriff’s Office joint
investigation conducted on January 16, 2019 resulted in the arrest of Davin
Slone (4-17-93) of Inglis. A tip was received by the Marion County Sheriff’s
Office Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Division which launched the
investigation. The tip revealed a previously unidentified individual was using
internet sites to search and share images of children engaged in various sexual
activities. The investigation determined the “user” did reside in the Town of
Inglis in Levy County.
Investigators from both agencies worked together to secure a
search warrant for the home located at 77 Park Street in Inglis. Davin Slone was
located at this home and identified as the user of the internet service.
Investigators seized electronic devices owned by Slone and discovered he
downloaded and shared a minimum of three images depicting children under the
age of 18 engaged in sexual activities.
Slone was arrested and charged with three counts of
possession of obscene pornographic material (child pornography). He is being
held in the Levy County Detention Facility in lieu of a $450,000.00 bond.
