A Golden Gate man arrested on child pornography charges in March faces more charges after detectives found hundreds of illicit videos and images on his home computer – one of the largest collections of child pornography ever seen in Collier County.
Julio R. Marin-Rios, 43, was arrested Wednesday at the Collier County jail and charged with 270 counts of possession of child pornography.
Marin-Rios has been in the jail since his March 15 arrest on 30 counts of possession of child pornography. At that time a preliminary forensic analysis of Marin-Rios’ home computer by the Collier County Sheriff’s Office turned up 30 pictures and video files of pre-pubescent boys involved in sex acts with each other or alone.
Further forensic analysis and criminal investigation revealed there were additional videos and images “of an extremely graphic sexual nature” located on Marin-Rios’ personal computer at his residence at 5048 28th Place Southwest, according to sheriff’s reports.
“The content is the most shocking I’ve ever seen,” said Detective Scott Rapisarda of the Collier County Sheriff’s Office’s Major Crimes Bureau Exploitation Unit.
The images show boys involved in sex acts with men and with each other, Detective Rapisarda said. The victims ranged in age from 5 to 14 years old, he said.
CCSO launched an investigation in February after receiving a cybertip from the National Center For Missing and Exploited Children.
According to the tip, the Broward County Sheriff’s Office had identified an Internet Protocol address suspected of posting child pornography to a Google Groups site. The pornography contained male children under the age of 12 engaged in sex acts with adults and alone.
Further investigation by a detective with CCSO’s Major Crimes Bureau Exploitation Unit traced the IP address back to Marin-Rios.
CCSO detectives executed a search warrant at Marin-Rios’ residence March 15. A preliminary forensic analysis of Marin-Rios’ home computer turned up 30 pictures and video files of pre-pubescent boys involved in sex acts with each other or alone. Marin-Rios was placed under arrest.
