Jamie Borne, a 30-year-old probationer in New Orleans, was arrested by Louisiana authorities on February 26, 2026, after probation officers discovered a child-sized sex doll and electronic devices suspected of containing child sexual abuse material during a routine visit to his home.
When asked about the child-sized sex doll, Borne reportedly told officers he was “very lonely.”
Borne, who identified himself as a programmer for the Roblox gaming platform, was serving probation for a 2023 conviction involving smoke grenades and a firearm. During the visit, officers found the child-sized sex doll in Borne’s bedroom along with child clothing, condoms, and electronic devices believed to contain material related to children under 13 years old.
Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill confirmed that ICE Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) and the Louisiana State Police were involved in the arrest. Borne was booked on 40 counts of possession of child sexual abuse material and one count of possession, trafficking, or importing a child sex doll. He is being held on a bond of $50,000 per count.
Louisiana state law stipulates severe penalties for these offenses, including hard labor sentences of up to 20 years without parole for possession of child sexual abuse material and additional penalties for trafficking or importing child sex dolls.
Roblox, the gaming platform where Borne worked, has faced scrutiny in recent years for its lack of age restrictions and alleged facilitation of predatory behavior. According to Murrill, Roblox allows access to millions of games, including some that allegedly feature explicit content. She has filed a lawsuit against Roblox, citing its failure to implement proper safeguards for minors.
The platform reportedly has 151.5 million daily users, with 20 percent under nine years old and another 20 percent between ages nine and twelve. Critics argue this demographic makeup makes it especially urgent for Roblox to address safety concerns.
