Crimes against Children 11-10-12
Belle Isle, FL
An investigation of internet child porn ended today with the arrest of a Belle Isle
contractor after thousands of illegal images of children as young as 6
were seized from his Hoffner Avenue home, according to a statewide cyber
crime unit.
Frederick James Ward was picked up at the Hilton Hotel Bonnet Creek near Walt Disney World, arrest records show.
Ward, 54, became a suspect in July when the Florida Department of Law Enforcement's Cyber/High-Tech Crime unit noticed internet files depicting the sexual exploitation were being shared by a computer later tracked to his internet address, records show.

A professor whose research focuses on Internet censorship and the use of children in advertising has been charged with having child pornography on his Central Michigan University computer.
The school announced Thursday that it has suspended William L. Merrill and barred him from the campus in Mount Pleasant, about 120 miles northwest of Detroit.
According to the university, its information technology employees found "inappropriate material" on Merrill's computer Monday, and it suspended him that day.
Philadelphia, PA
A former Philadelphia police inspector who served time in prison for possessing child pornography has been arrested again, this time after allegedly trying to lure an 8-year-old Roxborough girl into his car, police said.
Leo Haley, 72, a registered Megan's Law offender, was arrested Thursday morning on charges of unlawful restraint, luring a child, making terroristic threats, and harassment. The charges stem from an Oct. 17 incident on the 7000 block of Voight Road, about two miles from Haley's Lauriston Street home.
Hamilton, OH
A truck driver from Columbus, Ohio, was arrested Thursday in Butler County in connection with a computer flash drive that contained photographs of child pornography.
Robert Burwinkle, 52, was arrested after investigators from the Butler County Sheriff’s Office received a tip a few days ago that the flash drive found in St. Clair Township contained sexually oriented photos of minors.
The investigation eventually led to Burwinkle. After the suspect was located in Butler County, he gave an interview that led investigators to confiscate additional pornographic materials involving minors.
