A “ROBLOX programmer” has been charged with sex abuse after cops found a child size sex doll in his home.
When police asked Jamie Borne, 30, about the doll, he responded that “he was very lonely”.
Cops said they found the twisted toy on the sofa in the bedroom of his New Orleans home.
The doll was “dressed in a onesie”, according to Attorney General Liz Murill, who said Borne was a Roblox programmer.
Police alleged they found children’s clothing as well as used and unused condoms at Borne’s home as well as several devices with child sex abuse content.
The suspect also told police he was a Roblox programmer.
But spokesperson from Roblox said that Borne has never worked for the company.
The company told WBRZ: “The individual is not, and has never been, a Roblox employee.”
They did confirm that Borne had an account to design games, known as “experiences”, on the platform.
The spokesperson said: “Roblox’s platform allows people unaffiliated with the company to build experiences that are governed by our robust community standards.
“We currently have more than 2 million creators using our technology to build.
“We have deactivated his experiences and banned his accounts in accordance with our off platform behavior policy in our community standards.”
The Attorney General said: “Our Criminal Division is now prosecuting this disturbing case against Jamie Borne.
“If you possess child sexual abuse materials or child blow up sex dolls, you will face Louisiana justice.”
Cops said Borne admitted to buying the sex doll as well as to owning the child sex abuse material across several devices.
He was already on probation for aggravated assault with a dangerous weapon when cops allegedly found the material.
They seized multiple hard drives, laptops and phones from Borne.
The Sun contacted Roblox for comment.
Earlier this year, chilling details emerged of an eerie game made on Roblox by the suspected school shooter who rampaged through Tumbler Ridge Secondary school.
Jesse Van Rootselaar, 18, is thought to have killed eight and wounding 25 others in the second-deadliest school massacre in Canada’s history.
An investigation revealed that the suspected shooter created a video game that let players simulate a mass shooting on a level designed to look like a shopping centre.
