OAKLAND PARK, Fla. – A 28-year-old Oakland Park man is facing nearly a dozen charges after Broward County deputies said a tip from Twitter led them to a trove of child sexual abuse images on his computer Wednesday.
According to a Broward Sheriff’s Office arrest report, in September, investigators in Florida received a tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children that Twitter found child sexual abuse material in an account owned by Dylan Kenyon-Jones.

Investigators following up on the case in January found five instances of child sexual abuse material, the report states. But, according to deputies, that was nothing compared to what they found at his home.
The report states the initial investigation began in Tallahassee, where Kenyon-Jones had been living.
The case moved to Broward County after investigators determined he had moved back to South Florida.
According to BSO, with the assistance of a SWAT team, deputies executed a search warrant at Kenyon-Jones’ home on Northeast Fifth Avenue, near Northeast High School, at around 6 a.m. Wednesday.
The report states that Kenyon-Jones had nothing to say to investigators, however, his laptop had plenty of evidence: more than 100 child sexual abuse images.
The images depicted both girls and boys, roughly 6 to 12 years old, engaged in “provocative” poses or sex acts with themselves, other children or adults, according to the report.
Kenyon-Jones was arrested on 12 child pornography-related charges.
He was being held at the BSO Main Jail and appeared in court Thursday, where a judge set his bond at $110,000 and ordered him to have no contact with minors.
