3D-printed gun pioneer bailed after sex assault charge
24 September 2018
Cody Wilson has been released on bail in Houston, Texas, after being charged with the sexual assault of an under-age girl.
His bail was posted at $150,000 (£114,000).
Mr Wilson runs Defense Distributed, a company that offers blueprints for creating 3D printed guns.
He was deported back to the US from Taiwan on 22 September, having travelled there after a warrant was issued for his arrest.
In August, a 16-year-old said she had been paid $500 (£380) to have sex with him at a hotel in Austin, Texas.
