     The Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office conducted a joint investigation with the North Florida ICAC (Internet Crimes Against Children) team, Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum’s CyberCrime Unit, the US Marshal’s Service and Eglin Office of Special Investigations.  On April 29th and April 30th, six separate search warrants were executed within Okaloosa County in relationship to Possession of Child Pornography via the computer.  Substantial evidence was seized from each of the six residences. The evidence will be forensically reviewed; therefore no arrests were made on scene.  These criminal investigations are ongoing so no further details will be released at this time.
