According to the Montgomery County Prosecutor’s Office, the charges came after Internet Crimes Against Children sent a tip to Dayton police that Pugh’s IP address and email address were downloading child pornography.

Internet Crimes Against Children is a network of 61 task forces across local, state and national law enforcement agencies focusing on crimes that affect children online, according to the force’s website.
