Two men, Anthony Mozingo and Erik Contreras, are facing federal charges for their alleged involvement in child exploitation. Mozingo, 29, from Elk Grove, has been charged with attempted enticement of a minor after he believed he was communicating with a 13-year-old girl. Contreras, 34, from Oakland, is charged with possession of child pornography, with authorities discovering numerous distressing images and videos on his laptop. While Mozingo was detained after his arrest, Contreras was released following his initial court appearance, signaling differing judicial responses based on the particulars of each case.
In Mozingo's case, police in Brentwood posed as a 13-year-old girl and talked to him on a chat application, according to the criminal complaint.
Contreras allegedly sent the undercover officer a picture of his wife, a 4-year-old girl, and another woman, saying the two women were high at the time.
