A 42-year-old man from Colorado was arrested by the police for killing a 9-year-old girl by poisoning her with chloroform as he attempted to sexually assault her.

Authorities arrested Jeffrey Beagley on December 14, 2019.

Beagley is currently facing multiple charges related to the death of the girl and multiple child sex charges after authorities found thousands of pornographic images and videos during their investigation.

Beagley is currently facing First-degree murder, reckless manslaughter, child abuse resulting in death, sexual exploitation of children, attempted sex assault on a child by one in a position of trust, and invasion of privacy for sexual gratification.

On November 9, 2019, the police responded to a home on Hill Avenue, which is located in Grand Junction, around 7 am.

Beagley called 911 and reported that they found the 9-year-old girl unresponsive.

When the authorities arrived, the girl was found on the living room floor of the house.

The 9-year-old girl was unresponsive and did not breath, she was later pronounced dead.

Investigations revealed that Beagley had a makeshift tent made out of painted tarp inside a shed on his property.

Authorities found blankets, pillows, cellphones, masks, balloons, sex toys, lubricants, an empty bottle of chloroform, a rag, multiple computers, and equipment for recording video.

Authorities also discovered reddish-brown stains, which are believed to be blood.

Authorities recovered 1616 images and 75 total videos of porn and depicted children.

Some pictures and videos that were recovered from the computer were of the victim.

There was a hidden camera inside the home’s bathroom, and it recorded the young girl taking a bath.

The autopsy of the girl tested positive for very high levels of chloroform, and her death was ruled a homicide by chloroform poisoning.

Beagley is being held without bond and is due in court on December 31, 2019.
