A Cedar Falls man has been sentenced to nearly 30 years in prison after sending videos of underage girls performing sexual acts, sometimes with animals, through a messaging app, according to the Waterloo Cedar Falls Courier. 40 year old Joshua Baird, who formerly lived in Hampton, was found guilty of Sexual Exploitation of a Child on Friday. In February of last year he enticed an underage girl to engage in sexual conduct with him, which he recorded on his cell phone. He then sent some of those images to a person through the Kik Messenger app. That person turned out to be an undercover officer. Baird also sent a video of a girl having sex with an animal through the app and had exchanged sexual images with a teen from Melbourne, Australia.
