The girl told police she had been living with Wixom and had run away because Wixom was pressuring her to take nude videos of herself. She said Wixom was selling the videos online and keeping the money for herself, according to a criminal complaint.
The girl also told police Wixom had set up a dating app called SKOUT on the girl’s phone and was pressuring her to meet men with whom she was to have sex.
In April 2023, the girl was interviewed at the Mississippi Valley Child Protection Center in Muscatine by a forensic interviewer and reiterated what she told officers previously.
Detectives were able to conduct two separate interviews with Wixom, one on Feb. 6, 2023 at the Burlington Police Department, and a second interview on July 7, 2023 in a police department vehicle at Dairy Queen on Main Street in Burlington, the complaint states.
During these interviews, Wixom admitted to taking nude photos and videos of the girl, selling them online, and sending photos and videos directly to the girl, according to the complaint.
