MIAMI, OK – The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children received a cybertip regarding apparent child sexual abuse material.
That information was then provided to the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation Internet Crimes Against Children Unit (ICAC) for further investigation.
During their comprehensive investigation, OSBI special agents identified the internet user as 20-year-old Ethan Roher, who resides in Miami, Oklahoma.
On January 22, 2026, the OSBI ICAC Unit and the Bureau of Indian Affairs Predatory Crime Unit located Roher in Miami. Based on the information and evidence obtained during the investigation, Roher was arrested and booked into the Ottawa County Jail on charges of Possession of Child Sexual Abuse Material, Distribution of Child Pornography, and Violation of the Oklahoma Computer Crimes Act.
This is still an ongoing investigation. The OSBI appreciates the Bureau of Indian Affairs, Miami Police Department, Miami Nation, Ottawa County Sheriff's Office, and the Wyandotte Nation for their continued assistance during this investigation.
