Violet -- A St. Bernard Parish man has been arrested for possession of child
pornography.

Sheriff-elect James Pohlmann said that nearly 600 images involving sexual
abuse of very young boys and girls were found on two computers.

Louisiana State Police conducted an internet operation on Dec. 5, aimed at
locating people who possess, manufacture, and/or distribute child
pornography. Detectives connected with a computer that was sharing numerous
images of child sexual abuse from an internet connection in St. Bernard
Parish.

Police were then able to trace the computer to the 2700 block of Daniel
Drive in Violet, where they found 22-year-old Roy Joseph Moore. Officials
say Moore had the largest known collection of child pornography in
Louisiana.

He was booked on Wednesday with posession of child pornography, and is held
in St. Bernard Parish Prison. His bond is set at $32,500.

Detectives are asking that anyone who suspects that their child may have
been a victim of Moore come forward and help police find where the photos
originated. They can call the Sheriff's Office at (504) 271-2501.
