A Daviess County woman is facing charges of child exploitation after police say she took nude photos of a 4-year-old girl and sent them to a man to arouse him.
Police arrested 39-year-old Elizabeth Alspach after a child found the photos and text messages on Alspach’s cell phone. She is being held in the Daviess County Security Center on a $100,000 cash bond.
Probable cause affidavits say in early December of 2017, a female subject reported to Washington police that Alspach, also known as Elizabeth Donaldson, may have taken nude photos of her 4-year-old daughter.
The child who found the photos and messages took a screen shot of the photos and messages and sent them to the victim’s mother.
The messages requested that Alspach send a topless photo. Alspach sent a photo of herself but the recipient then asked for a photo of the 4-year-old.
On Dec. 5, 2017, the victim, was interviewed at the Treehouse and stated that Alspach had taken photos of her without her clothes more than once.
On Dec. 8th, Alspach was interviewed at the Washington police station. A Washington Detective showed Alspach the screenshots of the messages and photos but Alspach denied sending any messages or photos. Then on Jan. 30th of this year, Alspach was interviewed again and admitted to taking photos of the child.
Alspach told police a male she knew as “Ken” begged her to send the photo. She says “Ken” was excited about receiving them and planned to use them to arouse himself.
