The FBI’s San Francisco office is asking for public help in looking for a man who might carry critical information about a child victim of sexual exploitation.
On Wednesday, the FBI announced that the man, only known as “John Doe 47” was first recorded with a child in August 2020 by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC)
The video’s data states that the file were produced before April 2020.
The man is described as a black male, between the ages of 18 and 25. According to the FBI, the man was heard speaking English in the video.
