On October 22, the Maryland State Police (MSP) announced that a man from Harford County was arrested and charged early on Thursday morning after a Maryland State Police Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force (ICAC) investigation developed evidence supporting charges of distribution and possession of child pornography.
The suspect is identified as Robert Jackson Wyatt Jr., 52, of Fallston, Maryland. Wyatt is charged with four counts of distribution of child pornography and eight counts of possession of child pornography. He was arrested at his home without incident and taken to the Harford County Detention Center, where he is being held without bond.
In August 2021, the Maryland State Police Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force initiated an investigation into the possession and distribution of child pornography online. The investigation led to the identification of Wyatt and his residence in Harford County.
On Thursday morning, the Maryland State Police, assisted by Homeland Security Investigations, served a search warrant at the identified residence. A preliminary forensic review of the suspect’s electronic devices revealed multiple child pornography files.
