7/2/26 - Lane County Sheriff's Office - Case #26-0878 – ICAC Task Force Arrest in Lincoln County
In February 2026, Lane County detectives, as part of the Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force, began an investigation into the online exploitation of a local child involving the Snapchat application.
On July 1, 2026, investigators identified the suspect as 19-year-old Diego Rojas-Hernandez of Newport, Oregon. As Rojas-Hernandez resided outside Lane County, LCSO requested assistance from the Oregon State Police.
Later that same day, Oregon State Police detectives arrested Rojas-Hernandez on charges of Luring a Minor and Online Sexual Corruption in the Second Degree. Rojas-Hernandez was lodged at the Lincoln County Jail.
This investigation remains ongoing, and no additional information is available for release at this time.
The Lane County Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force is committed to investigating internet-based crimes against children and working with local, state, and federal partners to identify offenders and protect vulnerable members of our community.
The Lane County Sheriff’s Office would like to thank the Oregon State Police, the Lane County District Attorney's Office, and the Lincoln County District Attorney's Office for all their work on this case.
