Boise Man Charged with Sexual Abuse of 3 Year Old

A Boise man has been indicted in federal court on 23 charges after prosecutors say he sexually abused a toddler and posted a Craigslist advertisement offering the 3-year-old for sex.

Jason Lloyd Schaber was originally charged in Idaho state court with lewd conduct and sexual exploitation of a child, but those charges were dropped Thursday after a federal grand jury indicted the 39-year-old on a charge of using interstate commerce for sex trafficking of a child, four counts of producing child pornography, 16 counts of distributing child pornography and one count of possessing child pornography.

The Idaho Statesman reports Schaber has not yet entered a plea to the federal charges. He pleaded not guilty to the state charges before they were dropped.
