PHOENIX – A Maricopa County Grand Jury indicted a Queen Creek man last week for alleged sexual exploitation of a minor, authorities announced on Thursday.

Cody Brett Weaver, 31, was charged with three counts of sexual exploitation of a minor, a Class 2 dangerous felony and dangerous crime against children, according to the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office.

The indictment stems from a tip the Queen Creek Police Department received from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children in April. The center alerted police of images and videos depicting sexual exploitation of a minor. A search warrant for Weaver’s home was issued and he was arrested and booked in jail in June.

A trial date has not been determined.
