Sexual predator
arrested
KENNER –
On
February 25, 2008, at
8:40 p.m.,
Michael
C. Nassoura, age 56,
of 334 St. Joseph St #520 New Orleans Louisiana, was arrested
for computer-aided solicitation for sexual purposes, and
indecent behavior with juveniles.
The undercover operation
began in
February
2008, when a Kenner
detective went into an online chat room posing as a juvenile
female from Kenner. Nassoura, who used the screen name
“wineguy1000,” contacted the detective.
From the onset,
Nassoura knew he was chatting with a juvenile female.
. During
the course of the chat, “wineguy1000” solicited to have sex with
the juvenile female. Nassoura then invited the juvenile female
to view his webcam.
Nassoura sent images of
himself masturbating to the point of ejaculation, via the
webcam.
On February 25, 2008, the defendant was
arrested when he arrived at a prearranged meeting location where
he wanted to meet the juvenile female.
If convicted, Nassoura will
be required to register as a sex offender and face a mandatory
two year prison term.
The investigation and arrest
were made possible by the utilization of equipment donated to
the Kenner Police Department by the Federal Bureau of
Investigations, specifically for this type of investigation.
The Kenner Police Department
has been and will continue aggressively going after individuals
who use the Internet to sexually exploit juveniles from the city
of Kenner.
This is the 40th such arrest by the Kenner
Police Department.
