W&M Professor Charged in Online Child Enticement CaseBy Chris Weidman, of the W&M Flat Hat Saturday, July 03, 2010 
Justin May
The reports state May appeared in the U.S. District Court in Norfolk before being jailed pending a bond hearing. The Federal Bureau of Investigation in Cleveland handled the case before the pictures were traced to a William and Mary computer account. The FBI’s Norfolk division took over the investigation and the photographs were tracked to May. Federal agent Paula Barrow’s affidavit stated the girl originally posted clothed photographs of herself on the modeling website www.talenthunter.com. The girl then received an e-mail from “Jason Marx” who claimed to have knowledge of the modeling industry. The girl informed “Jason Marx” that she was 13 years old. In response, the girl was directed to e-mail an alleged model named Nikki, who convinced the girl to send nude pictures of herself over the Internet. Nikki also offered to send a photographer to take modeling pictures of her in exchange for sex acts. The FBI traced the e-mails to May’s computer at the College. May is an associate professor in the economics department and is a 1998 graduate of Emory University and a 2007 graduate of the University of Michigan, where he received his Ph.D. in economics. Prior to joining the College, May spent three years as a research assistant at the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. May, according to his resume posted on the William and Mary website, has been faculty advisor to the Economics Club since 2008. He also served on the committee to create an International Relations dual degree with the University of St. Andrews, which will begin in fall 2011. |

Absolutely, everyone should be considered innocent until proven guilty.
Reading the comments here, and also in the article about the men who allegedly assaulted and raped the 6 years old girl, it's interesting to see how and to whom our community affords those presumptions.
