FDLE Agents arrest Tampa man on 15 counts related to child pornography

 
TAMPA, Fla. – Agents with the Florida Department of Law Enforcement arrested 56-year-old Jon Scott Wildman, of 13907 Capitol Drive, Tampa, on 10 counts of possession of child pornography and 5 counts of transmission of child pornography.
 
FDLE Agents began investigating Wildman after receiving a tip in February 2017 that several images depicting child pornography were uploaded to an Internet-based website. Information showed a specific IP address uploaded the images under a pseudonym. An additional tip was received that revealed the same IP address associated with similar activity. Upon the execution of a search warrant, the investigation revealed the IP address was registered to Wildman.
 
Wildman was transported to the Hillsborough County Jail for booking on a $75,000 bond.
