WICHITA, Kan — A 53-year-old Lindsborg man appeared in federal court in Wichita Friday on charges of traveling to a foreign country to have sex with a 13-year-old girl.

Anthony Shultz was charged with one count of engaging in illicit sexual conduct in a foreign place, one count of producing child pornography, one count of distributing child pornography and one count of identity theft.

According to court documents, Shultz is alleged to have traveled to the Philippines where he engaged in sex with a minor, produced videos of the act and distributed the videos on the Internet. The case began in April 2016 when the FBI received a tip that a U.S. citizen was sexually abusing minors in the Philippines, producing live-streaming videos and distributing the videos via the Internet to users who paid to see them. Investigators followed an electronic trail to Shultz, who is a commercial pilot and owns a home in Lindsborg.

If convicted, Shultz faces up to 30 years in federal prison in the first two counts and up to 20 years on the charge of distributing child pornography, and 5 years on the identity theft charge.

Shultz is in custody and will remain there pending a detention hearing July 29.
