Cameron Wilson, 32, Gallatin, was charged July 28 with 30 counts of possession of child pornography, class B felony, one count of promoting child pornography to a minor, class A felony, and one misdemeanor charge of furnishing pornographic material to a minor.
The charges stem from an incident at the Gallatin Plaza Apartments in March, 2015. At that time, Wilson was charged with one count of possession of child pornography and one count of furnishing pornographic material to a minor. Those original charges were dismissed and refiled with the additional charges after a search warrant was obtained. Seized items were then examined by a forensic examiner at the Heart of American Regional Computer Forensics Laboratory (RCFL) in Kansas City.
According to a report completed by the RCFL, approximately 1,483 images were contained on the electronic equipment. Upon further review it was determined that 197 images were identified as minors, 12 years of age and younger, engaged in sexually explicit conduct; and an undetermined number of minors 12-17 years of age engaged in sexually explicit conduct/acts. There are 48 child erotica images of females ranging in age from 5-10 years of age.
Upon further investigation it was determined that approximately 123 videos are easily identifiable as minors ranging in age of infants to 12 years of age which were engaged in sexually explicit acts.
Also contained on the electronic storage/media devices are images/videos of Wilson in representations of a pornographic nature of himself, sexual role playing communication which includes promotion of child pornographic materials via electronic correspondence and social media.
The probable cause report prepared by the Gallatin Police Department states that Wilson presented the pornographic material to a 12-year-old minor on or about March 14, 2015. Wilson invited the minor into his apartment to look at his knife collection.
Bond has been set at $200,000.
