Attorney General James Uthmeier Charges Another Snapchat Predator with Possession of Child Sexual Abuse Material

TALLAHASSEE, Fla.-Attorney General James Uthmeier's Office of Statewide Prosecution is charging Luke Sedlock, Green Cove Springs, with three felony counts of possession of child sexual abuse material (CSAM) as well as three felony counts of unlawful use of a two-way communication device.

"Over and over again, our office is prosecuting predators who are using Snapchat to trade disgusting content and victimize children. Protecting our kids is my utmost priority," said Attorney General James Uthmeier. "Our statewide prosecutors will ensure that this predator is held accountable for his abhorrent behavior."

The investigation was launched by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement in August 2025 based on tips from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. On Thursday, September 11, the Green Cove Springs Police Department executed a search warrant at Sedlock's residence. Investigators located his electronic devices, which contained both sexual abuse material involving young children and animals.

Sedlock is currently being held in the Clay County Jail on a $600,000 bond; he is not permitted to have access to devices with internet capabilities or contact with any person under the age of 18.
