An alleged adult predator persuaded a young teen girl over Snapchat to his Michigan home.

On Sunday, a 14-year-old girl was discovered wandering near 7 Mile and Sheldon roads in Northville Township during the early morning hours, as reported by WXYZ ABC 7. Police stated that Charles Willis, 22, had reached out to the teenager via Snapchat. He allegedly arranged and covered the cost of her two-hour Uber journey from her residence in Barry County to his home, according to prosecutors.

The girl informed the police that Willis instructed her to remain in the basement. WXYZ ABC 7 reported that he allegedly committed sexual offenses against her.

The Northville Township Police Department executed a search warrant at Willis’s house and arrested him. He faces charges of kidnapping, enticing a minor under 16 for immoral purposes, child sexually abusive activity, and first-degree criminal sexual conduct, as reported by WXYZ ABC 7.

In January 2025, Willis was accused of and still faces charges for third-degree criminal sexual conduct or statutory rape according to criminal records, according to WWMT. 

Due to Willis’ previous record and this current incident, police feel there may be more victims.

“Our real concern is finding out if there’s other victims out there that this individual might have had contact with, and encouraging them to reach out.Lieutenant Patrick Reinke with the Northville Township Police Department urged.

Anyone who believes that they or their child has been in contact with Willis is asked to contact the department’s Detective Bureau at (248)349-9400.
