RPD: Online Tip Leads To Child Porn Arrest

An Anderson man has been arrested on child pornography charges after a tip was provided to Redding Police. The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children contacted the RPD last September alerting them to the activity. Detectives served several search warrants to tech companies and were eventually able to trace the uploads to a social media account registered to 22-year-old Tanner Purdy. On Friday detectives went to Purdy’s workplace and interviewed him. He reportedly admitted to having child porn and was arrested.
