In April 2020, ISP DCI Zone 4 Agents initiated an investigation after learning that a subject was distributing child pornography via a social media application. During the course of the investigation, ISP Investigators assigned to the Office of the Illinois Attorney General Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force (ICAC) gathered evidence supporting the arrest.

An arrest warrant was issued for Logsdon and the bond was set at $250,000 (10 percent to apply).

On January 18, 2022, after receiving the arrest warrant, Zone 4 Agents located Logsdon, placed him under arrest, and transported him to the Schuyler County Jail.
