A Mesa man, who according to police went by the online alter ego "Zel the Wolf"on the digital art-sharing site DeviantArt.com, was arrested this week for alleged online sexual contact with two 12-year-old girls and for bestiality.
Mesa police say Aaron Thomas Usery, 21, engaged in virtual sexual relationships with two 12-year-olds in Overland Park, Kansas, exchanging nude photographs with the girls, and communicating with them "while using 'Skype' and 'Google hangouts,'" according to a probable-cause statement on file with the Maricopa County Superior Court.
Authorities are searching for other victims following the arrest of a man who sexually abused a 9-year-old while dressed as a furry.
