Coral Springs Man Jailed For Allegedly Viewing & Sharing Child Porn

MIAMI (CBS4) - A Coral Springs man is in the Broward County jail accused of possessing, transmitting and receiving dozens of pictures and videos of child pornography.

Justin Aaron, 27, was arrested Monday after investigators executed a warrant and searched his family's apartment on Riverside Drive.

"It surprised us.  We had no idea what was going on, not a clue," said neighbor Adam Jacobs who watched investigators haul away computers from the residence.

"We have kids driving their bikes around here.  Who knew anything?  They came out with computers so we knew it was serious," said Jacobs.

No one answered at the Aaron residence.  A young woman going into the apartment, declined to talk about the allegations.

Sgt. Guiseppe Weller who is with the South Florida Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force says they locked onto Aaron through their ongoing investigation into child pornography distribution.

"We've learned he's done some babysitting in the past and has been a photographer.  Anyone who has any information we would like to hear from them," said Weller.

"Once we got into the residence he admitted to downloading child porn.  We recovered some pornography on computers and it will take three to four weeks to go through them and we expect more charges," said Sgt. Weller.
