FRANKFORT, KY (WAVE) - A federal grand jury in Louisville has indicted 27-year-old Jeremiah Oldham for distributing and possessing child pornography. The indictment comes after an investigation that started with Attorney General Jack Conway's Cybercrimes Unit.
The indictment alleges that from the end of October, 2009 and continuing through on or about November 24, 2009, Oldham knowingly possessed and distributed child pornography.
Investigators from the Cybercrimes Unit executed a search warrant at Oldham's Louisville residence in November of 2009, and the case was then referred to the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Western District of Kentucky in January of 2010.
Oldham turned himself over to the U.S. Marshall's office earlier this week. He was released following a detention hearing on Tuesday, Jan. 11, 2011.
Oldham was scheduled to stand trial in Louisville on March 14, 2011.
Since its creation in June 2008 the Cybercrimes Unit, a member of the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, has launched 188 investigations and seized more than 191,000 child pornographic images and videos from the Internet.
