Maddox Isaiah Cummings, 21, is facing a federal firearms charge while felony cases remain pending in Delaware County, Oklahoma. A federal grand jury indicted Cummings on a charge of making a false statement to acquire a firearm, according to KSNF/KODE | FourStatesHomepage.com. The state cases accuse him of blackmailing and intimidating a teenage girl.
The federal case centers on statements Cummings allegedly made during an attempted firearm purchase. According to Newstalk KZRG, prosecutors say he indicated that he was not under indictment and had never been convicted of a felony, though both statements were allegedly untrue, as reported by KSNF/KODE | FourStatesHomepage.com. The indictment identifies him as a Las Vegas, Nevada, resident; he has also been tied to Commerce in the Delaware County proceedings.
Delaware County Charges Involve a Teenage Girl
The Delaware County charges involve allegations concerning a girl who was 16 at the time. Cummings is charged with procuring, producing, distributing or possessing child sexual abuse material, as well as blackmail and witness intimidation. Investigators allege he threatened to post sexually explicit videos of the teenager online unless she complied with his demands, then posted the videos after she refused, according to KSNF/KODE | FourStatesHomepage.com.
The Delaware County prosecution dates to 2023, when the initial charges were filed, according to fourstateshomepage.com. Court records cited by the station say Cummings was arrested in November after being on the run for three years.
Online sextortion reporting
The case comes amid a broader volume of online-enticement reports. According to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, its CyberTipline received 1.4 million reports concerning online enticement in 2025, including more than 80,000 reports concerning sextortion.
For suspected child sexual exploitation in Oklahoma, the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation directs the public to report it to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children's CyberTipline at cybertipline.com or by calling 1-800-THE-LOST.
Missed Hearing Led to Bench Warrant, Higher Bond
Cummings missed a preliminary hearing in August, prompting a Delaware County judge to issue a bench warrant, according to the report. His bond was later raised to $30,000. The state-court proceedings continued as the separate federal indictment moved forward.
Cummings has not been convicted in the federal case, and the indictment is an allegation that prosecutors must prove in court. The Delaware County felony charges also remain unresolved, with no final disposition, plea or trial date confirmed in the available reporting. The federal case concerns the alleged firearm-purchase statements, while the Oklahoma case concerns allegations involving threats and explicit videos.
