Nearly 3,000 Child Pornography Images Distributed By IE Man: PD

REDLANDS, CA — A man suspected of distributing nearly 3,000 images of child sexual abuse was arrested Tuesday by Redlands police detectives.

Bradley Clarence Peck, 30, of Victorville was taken into custody after a traffic stop near his home in the 13300 block of First Avenue. Jail booking charges show he is suspected of possession of obscene images depicting minors in a sexually explicit manner, possession of child pornography, and distributing/selling child pornography.

He was released from custody Wednesday on $30,000 bail.

Peck, who works for a company with locations in Redlands and Rancho Cucamonga, came under suspicion by Redlands police after they received two cyber tips from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.

Detectives served a search warrant at his home and found "numerous electronic devices containing more than 2,950 images of Child Sexual AbuseMaterial," according to the Redlands Police Department.

Investigators allege Peck used Kik messenger to upload multiple files of child pornography in approximately 20 transactions to other users on the app.

"Peck sold the images through Kik and other online apps in exchange for Amazon gift cards and cash transactions to his PayPal and Cash App accounts," police said.

The investigation is continuing and anyone with information is asked to contact Redlands Police Dispatch at 909-798-7681.
