An Indianapolis mother faces a felony sex trafficking charge after police say she tried to collect $400 in exchange for a man being able to molest her infant daughter.
Morgan D. Stapp, 32, was officially charged last week with attempted child sexual trafficking. The Indy mother of seven was arrested on Tuesday.
The FBI began investigating Stapp last November after receiving a report from Snapchat about attempted sex trafficking on their app. The messages, sent by user “morgan-stapp,” reportedly included three photos of Stapp’s 7-month-old daughter.
“U can f**k her for 400$,” one message read. “Half now rest after. I’ll send my address. I do live alone, and her dad is not in the picture.”
FBI agents interviewed Stapp on Nov. 11, 2024, and asked her about the alleged messages. Stapp reportedly told them her Snapchat had recently been “hacked” and that she no longer had access to her “morgan-stapp” account.

During an interview later that month with DCS, Stapp reportedly admitted to lying to the FBI agent about being kicked off her Snapchat account.
“I wanted the FBI to leave,” she reportedly said.
