Juvenile jailed for distributing child pornography complaint
A juvenile suspect has been arrested by the Bowie Police Department on a child pornography complaint.
Lt. Randy Hanson said Thursday a juvenile suspect is under investigation for possession and/or promotion of child pornography, a third degree felony.
The police investigation began with a tip received through the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children which originally came from Instagram.
“Instagram filters caught the video and reported it to the NCMEC, which then kicked it out to their liaison with local agencies. My first email came from Dallas Police,” he explained.
Back on June 26 a search of the internet provider came back through Comcell, a local company. In cooperation with the district attorney’s office a subpoena was obtained and served for customer records, which lead police to the device used to distribute the child pornography.

The regular meeting of the Bowie City Council for July 22 has been cancelled. City Manager Bert Cunningham and Mayor Gaylynn Burris will be attending the Texas Public Power Association conference.
City of Bowie officials were on hand to inspect the emergency electrical generators that were delivered last week.
Mayor Gaylynn Burris and City Manager Bert Cunningham inspected one of three emergency electrical generators purchased as part of an ongoing Federal Emergency Management Agency Hazard Mitigation Grant. They also talked with Jay Evans, head of the city electric department, and Jerry Sutton, director of the water treatment plant about the next step for installation of the generators.
This grant provides funding for one 150 kW and two 250 kW generators for use at the water treatment plant.
