OSBI agents, with the Internet Crimes Against Children Unit, arrest 2 men accused of the sexual exploitation of children.
They arrested 32-year-old Carl Moore in Amber, OK.
They say the case originated in October of 2021, when the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children forwarded a cyber tip they received from an electronic service provider to the OSBI.
The IP address traced back to an address in Amber.
Agents discovered Moore had used his neighbor’s unsecured IP address to upload and share child pornography.
Moore is charged with having and distributing child pornography and violating the Oklahoma Computer Crimes Act.
They also arrested 48 year old William Pope, who was picked up by U.S. Marshals in Harrison County, Texas, on an arrest warrant out of Pittsburg County.
He’s accused of buying/having obscene material.
They say that case began after a social media platform reported a user was posting images that were flagged as child pornography.
A search warrant led to agents finding several sexually explicit materials containing children.
Pope was brought back to Pittsburg County where he is being held on a $260,000 bond.
Both these cases are charges, not convictions.
