We thank the Texas AG’s office for their work and KPD for cooperating on this warrant,” said Sheriff Larry Leitha. “With our Digital Forensic Unit and the Crime Stoppers grant that made it possible, there is nowhere to hide for people who abuse children in this way. We were able to process evidence in hours, not weeks, and may have prevented further acts by this suspect. Harming children will not be tolerated in Kerr County, and we will do all we can to aid prosecution of these heinous crimes.”
