Man Sought in Nevada Sex Tape Case

Nevada authorities on Friday identified a man they want to question as they search for a young girl shown being sexually assaulted in a homemade videotape.


Chester Arthur Stiles, 34, was being called a "person of interest" in the search for a girl with haunting eyes who authorities believe was 4 or 5 years old when she was raped and sexually assaulted in the video, Nye County Sheriff Tony DeMeo said.


The girl is called "Madison" on the tape, and it is "possible" that the man shown in it is Stiles, DeMeo said.


Stiles, whose last known address was Las Vegas, also was wanted on unrelated state and federal warrants on charges of sexual assault and lewdness with a minor under 14 years of age, the sheriff said.

Edited to ad photo and remove search link. The first link may have been to a different Chester Authur Stiles because the police have his age as 34, and the one linked was 37.

1. I'm glad they have a lead.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed this leads them to the child.

2. No doubt in my mind

Stiles police file photo looks just like the guy on the video.

I saw the file photo for the first time, then the video photo, and I saw an instant match.

I hope I find this creep first.

What concerns me is that no family members of the little girl being called Madison have come forward. Surely she has a mother, grandparents, maybe aunts and uncles and siblings. Or do we have a case of a woman who is so in love with the perp that she won't even turn him in. This is not unusual.

4. Where are those files?

[spotbird]

5. I just posted them. nt

6. You're right. It does look like him.

Hope the catch him. Now he's one guy I'd like to see tasered from one end to the other.

8. His nose and ears are strange. nt

7. I was just about to do that

Thank you for saving me the trouble.

I think that Chester Stiles does look like the offender.

Now that they have a name and his full face photo circulating they're going to be getting hits as to his location.

12. Because maybe the mother sold her child for this purpose?

That the little girl is dressed in lingerie makes me think that someone prepped her for this. :shrug:

Yuck. I can't even think about it. That poor little girl.

3. Why did I know this guy's name was Chester?

Chester the Molester you freak!

[Sequoia]

17. You !!!

[merci_me]

9. There was another picture posted on DU yesterday

that shows the perp where you get a good view of an ear. It was also shown at the news conference a while ago and the ear in the picture and Stiles' ears sure look like a match.

Can anyone lay hands on the picture on DU from yesterday, with an enhanced view of his ear?

[Sukie1941]

10. It is shown on CNN's Home Page-Latest News

The side view you asked about, clear and crisp.

I don't know how to post photos here, so go there at www.cnn.com

13. It's too late for me to edit

so here's the pic from CNN:

[merci_me]

18. Thank you, but

that's not the one. That's the police file photo. It's a side view of the face front mugshot. What I saw yesterday was a freezeframe from the tape. Someone had digitally enhanced it. I'll keep watching for it and if I find it, I'll post it here.

11. Excellent, got a name to the face. Life's over, asshole.

[southern_belle]

14. k & r

[brentspeak]

15. Put him in general population

He'll have a very short prison stay.

[Old Vet]

16. Ive seen alot of terrible things in my life......

And this story just disgusts the core of humanity, FUCK.

[Akoto]

19. I'd say that's a pretty striking resemblance. Hope they catch him, n/t

[gateley]

20. Those mug shots -- what crime was he arrested for? nt

[yardwork]

21. Sexual assault on a minor.

That's probably how they identified him as this "person of interest." They probably pulled all the sex offenders in that area and looked for a match.

22. Why don't they put bloody chips inside these guys...

First time something happens...put a chip inside the body...in the liver or something...then they can keep track of him....shyte...bloody bastard...I'd like to rip off his penis...
:grr:

[gateley]

23. Thanks. Figured as much. nt

[cstanleytech]

24. Just to point out

"person of interest" does not mean guilty in case some of you have forgotten what happened with Dr. Steven J. Hatfill.

[LisaL]

25. Since in this case they got the tape of the crime, all they got to do

is to make sure that their suspect is the same person as the one on the tape. Which shouldn't be that hard. They can compare birthmarks, tattoos (if there are any) etc, as well as general appearance of the face.

[Whoa_Nelly]

26. They adjusted the story to match the age correctly

From the update on the articel:
(This version DELETES reference to sexual assault warrant, as sheriff now cannot confirm that; corrects Stiles' age to 37 sted 34; corrects time frame on earlier video)
