A Shreveport surgeon was arrested Tuesday by the Internet Crimes Against Children's Task Force after he solicited a deputy posing as a 15-year-old girl. Milton Slocum, 41, was booked into Caddo Correctional Center on charges of computer-aided solicitation of a minor for sexual purposes, indecent behavior with juveniles, and attempted possession of child pornography. Slocum’s arrest occurred during a recent operation conducted by the Internet Crimes Against Children's Task Force, which includes deputies and officers from the Caddo, Webster and Bossier Sheriff’s Offices; Bossier City Marshal's Office; Shreveport and Bossier City Police Departments; Bossier Parish District Attorney's Office; Immigrations and Customs Enforcement; and the U.S. Marshal's Office. Over the past several weeks, Caddo Sheriff's Detective Robert Greer had several Internet conversations with Slocum while posing on-line as a juvenile girl. During the conversations, Slocum talked about sex, sent pornographic pictures of himself to Greer and asked for specific pornographic pictures in return. Slocum then arranged a meeting at Columbia Park where he was to view and receive the pictures. Upon his arrival at the park, he was arrested by the Task Force. Slocum was booked into Caddo Correctional Center at 8:53 p.m. on Tuesday. No bond has been set.
