Lincoln City Man Arrested For Encouraging Child Sex Abuse


On Thursday, July 25, 2024, Lincoln City Police arrested 26-year-old Travis Wandersheid of Lincoln City, on six counts of Encouraging Child Sexual Abuse in the first degree. The investigation began in early May of 2024, when the Oregon Department of Justice Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force notified LCPD’s Criminal Investigation Unit of possible child sex abuse images being uploaded to an electronic service provider.


A three month investigation led Detectives to Wandersheid’s residence, where they executed a search warrant on July 18th, 2024 and obtained additional evidence. On July 25th, 2024, Detectives returned to Wandersheid’s residence and arrested him on the listed charges. He was subsequently transported to the Lincoln County Jail where he is currently lodged with a listed $1,500,000.00 bail.  This is an ongoing investigation and additional charges may be forthcoming. LCPD is asking for anyone with additional information to please contact Detective John Goodman at 541-994-3636.
