A Mexico man has been arrested and is being charged with the sexual exploitation of a child.

Kaden D. Baugh, 19, is facing several charges including the sexual exploitation of a child after investigators allegedly found a video on his phone of him engaged in sexual acts with a juvenile female according to the probable cause statement. 

According to the statement Baugh gave investigators access to his smartphone where the video was discovered. Investigators were able to identify the female in the video as a 16-year-old and were able to make contact with the victim who gave them a detailed statement.

Baugh was set to make his first court appearance on Friday, Oct. 27.

Those are not the only charges Baugh faces. Investigators were also looking into thefts from Benton City which led them to Baugh. He is also being charged with stealing and tampering from two separate events. One of the charges includes stealing a firearm. Baugh has a court date of Dec. 5 for those charges.

Baugh has a co-defendant in the alleged theft charges. Jerry R. Helton is also facing the same charges from the same events. Helton also is facing drug trafficking charges.
