72-Year-Old Man Charged with Possessing Child Porn

A 72-year-old Yulee man has been charged with possession of child pornography after a woman told deputies she found images on his computer, according to the Nassau County Sheriff’s Office.

The woman allegedly took snapshots of the images with her cellphone after stumbling across them and then confronted the man about them before leaving his home, deputies said.

She called the Sheriff’s Office and said that as she was leaving she saw the man taking his computer apart.

Deputies said the images the woman captured on her cell phone showed children who appeared to be younger than 10 years old in provocative poses and engaging in sex acts with adults.

Investigators claim they found more child porn images on thumb drives, DVDs, camera memory cards, VHS cassettes and camcorder cassettes seized from the man’s home, according to an arrest report.
