Father, son in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, arrested for child porn, police say
A father and son in Bensalem, Pennsylvania, were arrested on child porn charges Thursday, police said.
Raul "Christian" Sandoval Jr., 34, and his 58-year-old father, Raul Sandoval Sr., turned themselves in to Bensalem Police on Thursday. They were charged with sexual abuse of children (abuse material) and criminal use of a communication facility.
Police said they received a National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) cybertip that showed someone at the Salem Crossing Apartments on Old Street Road in Bensalem attempting to get pornographic images of children through the internet. An investigation determined that the apartment belonged to Raul Sandoval Sr. and Raul Sandoval Jr.
On March 12, police said detectives searched the apartment and seized an HP Desktop Computer owned by Raul Sandoval Jr., and a phone owned by Raul Sandoval Sr.
Police said a forensic examination of the son's computer hard drive revealed more than 100 images of females, about 6 to 12 years old, posing nude. It also allegedly showed them engaging in sex with other males, according to police.
The father's phone showed similar pictures, with 10 to 11-year-old females nude, police said.
Raul Sandoval Jr. and Raul Sandoval Sr. were both arraigned Thursday and taken to the Bucks County Correctional Facility on $2,000,000 bail each.
