Logan Cornwell was a Mormon church member and dentist in the Gilbert-Mesa, Arizona, area.
A YouTube video with police body came footage October 2025 shows Logan was pulled over and arrested and charged with child trafficking and misconduct involving weapons. He had allegedly been chatting online with a 16-year-old male and tried to meet the child to pay the child for sex. It was an undercover officer that he was chatting with instead of a child.
According to the YouTube video with police body came footage on November 25, 2025 Logan was pulled over again, held at gun point and arrested again. Cornwell was charged with 5 sexual exploitation of a minor charges, for images and videos found on at home devices.
In addition, in the YouTube video referencing police records, all 4 of his children were removed from the home. While police served the warrant for his home the police officers discovered a notebook that had detailed plans for Cornwell’s wife to leave the state and divorce Logan, to make it look like she was protecting the kids. And lastly, it also reports that a family member who was a detective had learned and then told police officers that Cornwell’s attorney told Cornwell’s wife to remove the electronics out of the home (before the warrant was served).
A review of Cornwell’s social media profiles indicated that he was married in a Mormon temple and was active in the Mormon church as of 2022. We are seeking information regarding his current LDS status, and any callings or duties he may have had in the church.
The two case files against Cornwell in Arizona Court Records do not state what the charges are.
The Arizona State Board of Dental Examiners have suspended Cornwell’s dental license until the criminal case is finished.

In June 2025, Jonathan Lane Sanders of Mesa, Arizona, another Mormon dentist, was charged with 23 federal crimes, including receiving child sexual abuse material, coercion of a minor, and sending obscene material to minors. Report: https://floodlit.org/a/g084/

2. Mesa dentist accused of soliciting undercover officer posing as underage teen
MESA, AZ — An East Valley dentist is accused of child sex trafficking and misconduct involving weapons.
Court documents show that 34-year-old Logan Edward Cornwell of Gilbert, who owns a Mesa dental office, reportedly contacted an undercover officer online last week.
The undercover officer reportedly told Cornwell that he was a 16-year-old boy, and Cornwell offered to meet up with the “teen” in exchange for money.
The pair agreed to meet at the “teen’s apartment," with police following Cornwell’s vehicle to the designated apartment complex. Cornwell was seen leaving the apartment about 30 minutes later and officers conducted a traffic stop, police say.
Cromwell denied having any weapons in the vehicle at the time, but officials located a firearm, more than $16,000 in cash, two cell phones and condoms.
He was taken into custody on one count of child sex trafficking and one count of weapons misconduct for failing to disclose a firearm.

Maricopa County Sheriff's Office“Detectives did a search warrant of the defendant’s home as well as the phone from his business and found images of... children in various nude positions, specifically sexually explicit positions,” said Joe Hinrichsen, a Maricopa County deputy attorney, during a court hearing this month.
Dr. Cornwell’s attorney, Garrett Smith, said the dentist was unaware of those images.
“It wasn’t his phone. It was his devices, the family’s devices. It was on the cloud,” he said.

The 34-year-old dentist was initially arrested after court documents alleged he met an undercover officer online who was posing as a 16-year-old male. Prosecutors allege Dr. Cornwell attempted to solicit sex acts for money.
Attorneys for Dr. Cornwell declined to comment to ABC15.
Following the latest criminal charges, a Maricopa County Superior Court judge set bond at $200,000. The Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office tells ABC15 Dr. Cornwell was released from jail on December 10 with an electronic monitor. His next court date is set for January.
As ABC15 previously reported, the Arizona State Board of Dental Examiners took action in November as a result of the arrest and indictment. The board voted on a full practice restriction, essentially a suspension of his dental license, until the criminal case is over.
Before the vote, Robert Jarvis, an attorney representing Dr. Cornwell, had asked the board to allow the dentist to continue practicing. He said Dr. Cornwell provides general dentistry and dental implants. The allegations don’t involve any patients.
“Dr. Cornwell adamantly denies any allegation related to minors,” he said at the dental board meeting.

9. Dentist arrested for soliciting undercover cop posing as boy
An Arizona dentist was arrested after allegedly offering money for sex to an undercover officer who was posing online as a teenage boy, according to a story published October 20 on abc15.com.
Dr. Logan Edward Cornwell, 34, who owns Mesa Dental Implants & Dentures in Mesa, AZ, was charged with child sex trafficking. Also, Cornwell, of Gilbert, AZ, was charged with weapons misconduct for reportedly failing to disclose a firearm at the time of his arrest, according to the story.
Last week, Cornwell purportedly contacted an undercover police officer online. The officer reportedly told Cornwell he was a 16-year-old boy. The dentist allegedly offered to meet up with the officer, who he believed was a teen, for sex in exchange for money.
After they purportedly agreed to meet at the “teen’s” apartment, police followed Cornwell’s vehicle to the apartment complex.
About 30 minutes after Cornwell was seen leaving the apartment, officers conducted a traffic stop. During the stop, Cornwell reportedly was asked if he had any weapons, and he denied having any. However, police located a firearm inside the vehicle, as well as more than $16,000 in cash, two cell phones, and condoms, according to the story.
According to Cornwell’s practice website, he graduated from the University of Texas at Houston School of Dentistry and later honed his skills in western Colorado working with underserved populations. Cornwell is married and has four children.

10. Dentist arrested for soliciting undercover cop faces suspension
The state dental board wants to suspend the license of an Arizona dentist who was arrested after allegedly offering money for sex to an undercover officer who was posing online as a teenage boy, according to a story published on November 13 on abc15.com.
On November 13, the Arizona State Board of Dental Examiners voted to give Dr. Logan Edward Cornwell, 34, the owner of Mesa Dental Implants & Dentures in Mesa, AZ, until November 14 to agree to full practice restriction until his criminal case is resolved, according to the story.
An attorney representing Cornwell asked the board not to suspend his license because the allegations didn’t involve any patients. If Cornwell fails to sign the agreement, the board will move forward with his suspension.
Cornwell, 34, of Gilbert, AZ, has pleaded not guilty to child sex trafficking and weapons misconduct, which was reportedly failing to disclose a firearm at the time of his arrest.

12. Dentist busted in Chandler PD’s child sex sting facing new charges
Arizona State Board of Dental Examiners has suspended Logan Cornwell’s license
CHANDLER, AZ (AZFamily) — An East Valley dentist accused of trying to meet up with what he thought was an underage boy has been rearrested on new child sex crimes charges.
Court records showed Logan Edward Cornwell is now facing five counts of child sexual exploitation after a search warrant turned up child pornography on his devices.
Cornwell, who identified himself as an employee at Mesa Dental Implants, had previously been arrested on Oct. 15 on accusations of child sex trafficking and a weapons charge. At that time, Chandler police officers were conducting a sting operation where an undercover agent posed as a 16-year-old boy on a hookup app.
Court papers detailed that Cornwell said he “loved” to “spoil younger guys.” Later in the conversation, the officer disclosed being an underage teen before agreeing to meet up for some “$” and later bringing up “200 today.”
Police noted several texts that were overly sexual in nature, and that Cornwell had expressed interest in meeting up at the boy’s apartment and telling him to “go ahead and shower/clean up.” Arresting documents revealed that Cornwell agreed to meet up at a specific location, and authorities watched him park his white Tesla, but he never exited his car.
After a few minutes, he sent one last message to the decoy and then left. Moments later, police conducted a traffic stop to detain Cornwell. Officers asked if there were any guns inside his car, which he denied, and that’s when he was arrested.
Court documents detailed that Cornwell had two cellphones, as well as a condom and $200 in cash in his pants pocket. A look inside his car turned up a gun in the center console, $16,000 in cash, and another condom.
When he was interviewed by detectives last month, Cornwell said he had driven to “Long-Wongs in Chandler” for his lunch break and denied stopping anywhere on the way, explaining that he had “just put in the address and basically let the car drive itself.”
Investigators then questioned him about the route he took instead of a direct route, and he didn’t have an answer, according to paperwork. Authorities asked him again if he stopped anywhere on his way, and that’s when he requested a lawyer.
Later that afternoon, detectives conducted a search warrant at his Mesa workplace. Then on Oct. 23, investigators seized his electronics at his Gilbert home, where authorities reportedly found the illegal images.
Cornwell was booked into the Maricopa County jail on a $75,000 cash-only bond on the initial charges. When he was rearrested this week, he was considered non-bondable because of his other felony charges.
According to the Arizona State Board of Dental Examiners, Cornwell’s license was suspended on Nov. 14 after learning about his first allegations. The suspension is in place until his criminal case is over.
