WABASH CO. – On August 25, 2023, officers with the Indiana State Police Peru District, Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force (ICAC), arrested a subject identified to be Adam Taylor, 40, from Wabash, IN, for Possession of Child Pornography.
The investigation began when a cyber tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) was received by the ICAC Task Force. The tip ultimately led to a search warrant being served on a residence at 1493 Orchard Street, Wabash, IN, by the Indiana State Police (ISP), with assistance from the Wabash City Police, Wabash County Sheriff’s Office, and Homeland Security. After a subsequent search, officers located multiple electronic devices.
The findings of the investigation were provided to the Wabash County Prosecutor’s Office, which ultimately resulted in an arrest warrant being issued. Taylor was located and served the arrest warrant. Taylor was transported to the Wabash County Jail on charges of possession of child pornography, a Level 5 felony.
Anyone having any information related to crimes against children is encouraged to contact their local law enforcement agency or visit the NCMEC website at http://www.missingkids.com/home or https://report.cybertip.org/ to make a report.
