A multiagency online child exploitation sting led to the arrest of three men accused of trying to use digital platforms to meet and sexually exploit children.
State police say the men believed they were chatting with minors, but it was actually an undercover investigator engaging with them to arrange in-person meetings.
The suspects include Stephane Pontoizeau, 39, of Mendham, NJ, Leroy Bruyn, 54, of Pine Bush, NY, and Ramon Josue Lopez-Moreno, age 31, of Liberty, NY.
The men all face child endangerment charges.
Troopers say they will be doing follow-up investigations and reviewing information to identify potential additional victims, offenses, or involved individuals.
