Home Newsroom Attorney General Labrador Announces Arrests of Two Idaho Men for Alleged Child Sexual Exploitation

BOISE, ID - Attorney General Raúl Labrador announced investigators with his Idaho Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Unit arrested two Idaho men last week for alleged sexual exploitation of a child.

On Wednesday, November 5th, 2025, 46-year-old John McGraw of Idaho Falls was charged with 10 counts of possession of child sexual exploitation material. The Idaho Falls Police Department, Bonneville County Sheriff's Office, Madison County Sheriff's Office, and the Pocatello Police Department assisted the ICAC Unit with the arrest.

On Thursday, November 6th, 2025, 61-year-old Lesley Marcum of Nampa was charged with 5 counts of possession of child sexual exploitation material. The Canyon County Sheriff's Office assisted the ICAC Unit with the arrest.

"Two more arrests-from Idaho Falls to Nampa-prove our statewide partnerships are working," said Attorney General Labrador. "These coordinated efforts to remove threats from our communities are protecting Idaho families. The ICAC Unit and our partner agencies will not stop fighting to keep Idaho's children safe from exploitation."

Anyone with information regarding the exploitation of children is encouraged to contact local police, the Attorney General's ICAC Unit at 208-947-8700, or the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children at 1-800-843-5678.

The Attorney General's ICAC Unit works with the Idaho ICAC Task Force, a coalition of federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies, to investigate and prosecute individuals who use the internet to criminally exploit children.

Parents, educators, and law enforcement officials can find more information and helpful resources at the ICAC website, ICACIdaho.org.

The charges listed above are merely accusations and the defendants are presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.
