WARSAW —Darwin Solorzano Donaire, 21, was arrested on Jan. 7 following a search warrant in connection with an Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) investigation executed by the Warsaw Police Department with assistance from Homeland Security Investigations.

The investigation began after the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children received a cyber tip via Instagram, and obtained a search warrant.

According to authorities, during the search, detectives found that Donaire had been viewing, screen recording, and sharing child sexual abuse material through Instagram Messenger. Multiple electronic devices were confiscated for further forensic analysis. 

Donaire has been charged with two felony counts of third-degree sexual exploitation of a minor and two felony counts of second-degree sexual exploitation of a minor. He is currently held at Duplin County Jail on a $250,000 secured bond.

This investigation marks Warsaw’s first operation as part of the ICAC Task Force and underscores the department’s commitment to protecting the community’s most vulnerable members.
