Witness tells cops man with sex toy in mouth propositioned truckers at Georgia rest area

A Delaware man reportedly seen with a sex toy in his mouth at an Interstate 75 rest area earlier this month was “offering oral sex to numerous truck drivers,” sheriff’s deputies in Monroe County said.

A deputy’s write-up of the mid-afternoon episode on Nov. 15 at the rest area north of Bolingbroke noted that, according to a witness, the man was in a parking lot there “driving around with a ‘Dildo’ in his mouth.’”

Deputies found the man, Kahlef Rashad Smith, 22, in a bathroom. He denied soliciting sex, the incident report noted.

“Smith stated he has an OnlyFans account and was making a video,” the report said, referring to a social media platform where users post often-explicit images or videos.

The officers then went to a U-Haul van that Smith was said to be traveling in and smelled “a strong odor of marijuana coming from it,” the report noted. “No marijuana was found, but the ‘Dildo’ was between the front seats.”

The deputies further noted that the van had been reported stolen in Delaware and that Smith was wanted there on an auto-theft charge.

He was jailed on charges of theft by bringing stolen property into the state and possession of tools for the commission of a crime.
