JOHNSON COUNTY, Iowa — An Iowa State University student is accused of encouraging social media users to take photos of women without their consent.

Authorities arrested Jack Erselius, 18, last week on two counts of solicitation of a felony.

According to court records a username later linked to Erselius sent photos of two female University of Iowa students to a group on the messaging app Kik, asking group members to follow them and take “creepshots” back in October.

Creepshots refer to a sexually suggestive photo taken of somebody in public without their knowledge.

Investigators were able to determine Erselius was the owner of the Kik username that solicited the photos to be taken, and he had been tracking the victims’ locations through Snapchat.

The criminal complaints filed in the case say the victims attended high school with Erselius in Montezuma. A no contact order has been granted to the victims.

Erselius is free after posting a $20,000 bond. An arraignment date has not yet been set.
