Richmond Police officer charged with possession of child pornography
A Richmond City Police officer is behind bars facing dozens of child pornography charges.
Officer David Stone, of Mineral, is currently being held without bond at the Central Virginia Regional Jail in Orange, according to the Louisa County Sheriff’s Office.
Stone, 51, was arrested on Jan. 25 and is facing 50 child pornography charges. Lousia County issued a search warrant to Stone’s home on Nov. 5.
“After a lengthy investigation, investigators seized multiple digital media devices to be examined by the LCSO Forensics Unit,” the Louisa County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release on Friday. “After the items were examined, they were found to contain a large number of files containing images of child sexual exploitation, with several of the images matching those reported in the cyber-tip.”
Louisa County Deputies tell NBC12 that a tip from the Southern Virginia Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force led to Stone’s arrest.
“I’m not aware of any videos, and I’m not aware of any videos involving the individual that was arrested,” Louisa County detective and PIO Chuck Love said.
