BEDFORD – All charges have been dropped against a Bedford man who was arrested in March 2022, on five counts of possession of child pornography.
According to Lawrence County Prosecutor Sam Arp, charges were dropped against 29-year-old Kameron Freeman due to “evidentiary issues preventing the case from moving forward”.
According to a probable cause affidavit on December 12, 2021, as part of the Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force. Bedford Police received a cyber tip of child pornography reported by MediaLab/Kik. The tip showed that Kik user “freemanAASLT” had several child pornography videos associated with the account. The videos showed female juveniles between the ages of 8 and 14 years old engaged in sexual intercourse or other sexual acts.
The “freemanAASLT” was associated with a Samsung phone and the account belonged to Kameron Freeman who lived in the 1110 block of 13th Street in Bedford.
Investigator then arrested Freeman.
“However, there are a lot of complex evidence issues when it comes to handling cases like this,” added Prosecutor Arp. “Moving forward, this problem has been solved.”
