Warren County, VA – The Warren County Sheriff’s Office Criminal Investigations Division recently conducted an undercover operation targeting individuals engaging in online solicitation of minors within the Warren County/Front Royal area. These investigative efforts are aimed at investigating and arresting those who engage in luring minors via the internet for lascivious intent. During the operation, an adult male initiated contact with an undercover investigator posing as a juvenile under the age of 15. During this conversation, the suspect expressed intent to meet the minor for sexual purposes.

Enrico M. Myers, a 23-year-old male from Front Royal, was identified as the suspect in this investigation. Investigators arranged a meeting with Mr. Myers, with who he believed to be a juvenile at a designated meeting place for sexual purposes. Investigators apprehended Mr. Myers when he arrived for the crimes listed below and he was taken into custody and transported to Rappahannock Shenandoah Warren (RSW) Regional Jail. Following his arrest, Mr. Myers appeared before a magistrate and was ordered to be held in custody without bond. His court date is scheduled for May 1, 2025, at 9:00 a.m. in the Warren County Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court.
