Taylor County Jail records show Anson City Manager Ervin Joe Campbell was arrested on federal charges Wednesday.
According to an affidavit filed by a Homeland Security Investigations special agent, the arrest stemmed from an operation involving Homeland Security, the Texas Department of Public Safety, the Abilene Police Department and the Texas Attorney General’s Office.
Investigators said an undercover account posing as a 15-year-old posted an ad on Facebook Marketplace. Court documents allege Campbell responded to the account and agreed to pay for sex.
The affidavit states Campbell was told the person was 15 years old.
Investigators said he replied, “I could get in trouble,” before continuing the conversation and arranging to meet at a predetermined location.
Authorities said Campbell told the undercover account he drove a white truck and lived in Anson.
According to court documents, roughly 30 minutes after receiving the address agents observed a white Chevrolet pickup registered to Campbell arrive at the location.
Investigators said Campbell was arrested when agents approached the vehicle.
Court records state he was found with two condoms and more than $600 in cash.
Agents also reported the recovery of two cellphones, including one that allegedly displayed messages with a contact labeled “15.”
Campbell is facing federal charges of attempted enticement of a minor, a federal offense that carries a mandatory minimum sentence of 10 years in prison and up to life, if convicted.
During his court appearance, records show Campbell requested a court-appointed attorney. His preliminary hearing is currently scheduled for March 3 at 10 a.m.
