BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KGET) — A 42-year-old Bakersfield man has been charged with possession of child pornography following his arrest last month, according to court records.
Jared Anthony Martinez was charged Friday with a single felony count of possessing material depicting a minor engaged in sexual conduct, records show. He was arrested Oct. 13.
According to a probable cause declaration, police received a CyberTipline report of child porn uploaded to a phone linked to Martinez. Uploaded video files depicted girls under the age of 12 involved in sex acts, police said.
