PENSACOLA, Fla. – The Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) arrested Garey Anthony Buscaino, 48, of Pensacola on seven counts of video voyeurism of a child under 16 years of age, 30 counts of possession of child sexual abuse material and one count of unlawful use of a two-way communication device to facilitate a felony.  Buscaino was an Escambia County firefighter at the time of his arrest. The arrest is the result of FDLE’s statewide initiative to locate and arrest criminals targeting children and sharing files depicting the sexual abuse of children.
 
FDLE’s investigation began in April 2025 after agents received a cybertip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC), alerting agents to a cellphone user uploading child sexual exploitation files to a cloud account.
 
The investigation identified Buscaino as the accountholder. Further investigation revealed that Buscaino had hidden video cameras and secretly recorded a juvenile in stages of undress.
 
On May 15, agents served search warrants at Buscaino’s primary residence and a secondary residence. Multiple electronic devices were seized and a preliminary forensic review located several voyeurism videos and hundreds of files depicting the sexual abuse of children, some as young as 4 years old.
 
Buscaino was arrested without incident and booked into the Escambia County Jail. The case will be prosecuted by the State Attorney’s Office, First Judicial Circuit.
 
FDLE’s investigation remains active.
 
The Escambia County Sheriff’s Office and Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) assisted.
