Prairieville man arrested on multiple child pornography charges
BATON ROUGE, La. (Louisiana First) — A man from Prairieville has been arrested on multiple child pornography charges following an investigation by the Ascension Parish Sheriff's Office's Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Taskforce.
APSO said Kyle Ardoin, 18, was taken into custody and charged with two counts of pornography involving juveniles under the age of 13 and one count of pornography involving juveniles.
The investigation began on April 9, when the ICAC Taskforce received a cyber tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. Detectives discovered that Ardoin had allegedly received and saved graphic images depicting child sexual abuse. A warrant was issued for his arrest.
The sheriff's office said Ardoin was later found in Pike County, Mississippi, where he was taken into custody and transported back to Ascension Parish. He is currently being held at the Ascension Parish Jail.
Authorities said the investigation is ongoing.
