As much as we want to think that all adults are trustworthy, that’s just not the case. Sadly, sometimes they have nefarious intentions toward children. Some of the worst of the worst even want to exploit children sexually. A 53-year-old man in Utah allegedly approached a teenager and offered to help the teen kick-start a career in pornography. Police arrested David Francis Butterfield in St. George on January 24, 2026, following a disturbing complaint made by a minor. Now he faces felony charges.
The encounter allegedly occurred at an apartment complex on East 450 North, St. George News reported. According to court documents obtained by the news outlet, a family member told police the minor had been visiting a relative in the apartment complex when Butterfield stopped by. At first, the conversation seemed normal, but things took a bizarre turn when the relative stepped outside.
Butterfield allegedly showed sexually explicit images to the girl and asked if she would be interested in a “lucrative” business opportunity, as he had as a child. Despite knowing the teenage girl was underage, Butterfield asked if she wanted his help to “get into pornography,” court documents state.
