Orange County Man Arrested for Child Pornography Possession
TALLAHASSEE, FL – Attorney General Bill McCollum today announced an Orange County man has been taken into custody and will be charged with possession of child pornography. Paul S. Jones, 41, was arrested by law enforcement with the Attorney General’s CyberCrime Unit after investigators discovered Jones had multiple images of child pornography in his possession.
CyberCrime investigators located images of child pornography during a routine investigation and traced the images back to Jones’ computer. A search warrant was executed at his Orlando home where two laptop computers, eight hard drives, three digital cameras and more than 100 CDs and DVDs were seized. The items removed from the home will undergo forensic analysis to identify any additional images of child pornography. An initial review of his computers revealed multiple images of child pornography including some of children as young as 12 years old.
Jones will be booked into the Orange County Jail and will be charged with 10 counts of possession of child pornography which will be enhanced to a second-degree felony under the CyberCrimes Against Children Act. The Federal Bureau of Investigations, the Orange County Sheriff’s Office, the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office, the New Smyrna Beach Police Department, the Ocoee Police Department, and the Winter Springs Police Department assisted with the arrest.
