FDLE arrests father and son for possession of child pornography

 
ORANGE CITY, Fla. – Yesterday, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement Orlando Regional Operations Center arrested Daryl Hunter, 52, and his son, Morgan Hunter, 21, of 1980 S. Sparkman Ave., Orange City, Fla. Daryl Hunter was arrested on two counts of possession of child pornography and Morgan Hunter was arrested on 10 counts of possession of child pornography. 
 
FDLE Agents began investigating the father and son in July 2014 after discovering that computers in their home were independently sharing images of child pornography.  FDLE Agents served a search warrant at the residence and discovered numerous images of child pornography on two computers used by the men. 
 
Daryl Hunter was previously arrested on child pornography charges (15 counts) by the DeLand Police Department in July 2013 and is currently awaiting sentencing on those charges. 
 
Daryl and Morgan Hunter were booked into the Volusia County Jail and are being held on no bond.  The case will be prosecuted by the Office of the State Attorney, 7th Judicial Circuit.
