A 45-year-old Kokomo woman is facing multiple charges after a California investigation into alleged child sex crimes. Stacy Coffman was taken into custody Thursday morning, September 24, on an outstanding warrant, and Kokomo police followed the arrest with a search of a home in the 500 block of East Sycamore Street.
According to fox59.com, the Kokomo Police Department’s criminal investigation section was first contacted by the Sunnyvale Police Department in California, which had opened an investigation that led to a warrant for Coffman’s arrest. Once notified, Kokomo investigators and patrol officers located Coffman and took her into custody, the outlet reported.
The charges against her are serious. She faces counts of sending harmful matter to seduce a minor, contacting a minor to commit a felony, and possession of child pornography, according to a report from wibc.com. Those charges stem directly from the California investigation that Sunnyvale police initiated before reaching out to Kokomo authorities, per the same fox59.com report.
Search Warrant Executed on East Sycamore Street
Kokomo investigators searched a home in the 500 block of East Sycamore Street, the outlet notes. The evidence does not detail what, if anything, was recovered during that search, and no further information about the results has been made public.
The case remains under investigation, and as the report from hoosierenquirer.com makes clear, Coffman has been charged but has not been convicted. As hoosierenquirer.com put it, “Coffman has been charged; she has not been convicted.”
Anyone seeking official records of any court proceedings related to the case would need to obtain them directly from the court maintaining that record, per guidance from Indiana’s state court records portal, mycase.in.gov.
