Officials with Faulkner County Sheriff’s Office arrested Daniel L. Robideaux, of Missouri, Sunday for alleged Internet Stalking of a Child, a class B felony.
A sheriff’s office release stated he was arrested in the parking lot of Office Depot in Conway.
According to police, the arrest follows a two-month investigation during which Robideaux coordinated to meet with a female he chatted with online for the purpose of having sex with a 10-year-old female.
“Robideaux communicated with what he thought was the mother of this child, but in fact it was an investigator with the sheriff’s office,” the release stated. “Robideaux was arrested in the parking lot of Office Depot after meeting with the investigator and inquiring as to where the 10-year-old daughter was.”
Investigators and police took the man into custody without incident.
Police say Robideaux, a resident of Columbia, Missouri, traveled to Conway for this meeting.
Faulkner County Sheriff’s Office Captain Matt Rice said there are two employees out of the sheriff’s office Criminal Investigations Division whose concentrations are in Internet crimes against children.
“We have one person that does this continuously. That’s all she does is this,” Rice said.
Robideaux was in custody Monday afternoon. He is being held on a $100,000 bond.

Where are the slimy rocks these pervert crawl out from under. We should make child stalking a life sentence or death penalty offense. Victims carry the pain for life. As a child a long life in most cases.

Pr0n reality
Since you asked: I have the idea that pornography, which, thanks to that there Intermanets is as easy to access as weather reports, is burning psyches left and right.
Where once it was a shame thing to peruse porn, so you'd kind of keep it on the downlow, now it may be gained anonymously, and worse, being a fan of it may be anonymously declared. So you not only have ready access, but you have a built-in support group for your continued pursuit!
And, because it's so accessible, it leads to escalation. The mental rush you get from initial porn viewing needs higher stimulus acts over time, as you get someone numb to Plan A (ie. Where once a naked body, now requires engaged bodies, where once engaged bodies, now requires an external force, and so forth...)
And, it becomes a norm. So you look at the various acts and actors (and recall your support group lets you know this is a good thing) and you do this night after night, and a skewed reality takes over. (ie. So Z is kinda' freaky, but X and Y, no, that's about right, and some years ago any of it would disgust you.)
So you wind up with dude here engaging, using the same mechanisms used to engage with support groups, in what to any of us would be a revolting conversation, and then driving down from another state to act out the subject of the conversation.
Dude's reality has been morphed into this horror where a transaction with a mother can lead to such an unseemly act is something of a norm, something that happens in his world.
Yuck.
(I could go on, the pr0nification of fashion as another example, but enough's enough.)
Yes.
You could have a very valid point.
Sick to my stomach
I can't even articulate how thoroughly disgusting this is on so many levels.
We are so fortunate that the FCSO is so diligent in the these matters.
I think we can all agree
I think we can all agree, no matter how you feel about county politics, that we need to remain diligent about predators coming into our community and preying on our children. Thank you to FCSO for reeling in this guy before he was able to hurt anyone
am confused slightly
On Court Docket it shows he was also charged with felony resisting but the story says he was taken in to custody without incident. If he did resist it would have been a great time to accidently cave his skull in. Accidently of course.
No worries for this person if
No worries for this person if history repeats it's self like always he will be out soon..!!!!!! Parents never let your guard down!!!!!!
ad placement
I find it odd that after reading this article, I go back to the front page and there's an Ad featuring a beautiful young girl wearing a T-Shirt that says "Admit it, you'd go to jail for this," across her chest.
Hmm
I'm sure Missouri is glad we took this creep off their hands.
