Dad left stunned and called the police on his son when he realized what he’s been doing on his phone!

Per reports, this brave father reportedly went straight to the authorities after discovering what his 30-year-old son was really doing on his smartphone. Authorities conducted lengthy interviews and also analyzed the suspect’s web activity and found that he was up to no good. When they had gathered enough evidence against the 30-year-old man, prosecutors filed a warrant for his arrest. A week after the warrant went out for his arrest, he turned himself in to authorities. He was released almost immediately on his own recognizance after posting a bond.

Per reports, the father reportedly discovered that his adult son was sending nu-e pictures of himself to a young child who was under the age of eighteen. The 30-year-old man, Michael, was reportedly arrested for sending il-icit photos to at least one young child. The concerned father first reported his son to the police. If this suspected’s father had not first called the state troopers about his son’s horrific behavior on his smartphone, the man could still be hurting children by exposing them to photos of his na-ed body.

During the report, Michael’s father was very clear and told the responding officers that his son had sent at least one na-ed photo of himself to a child who was under the age of consent. Unfortunately, state police took eighteen months to arrest Michael. They did not report what the image depicted and who the recipient of the image was. They also did not indicate how Michael’s dad found the illegal images. Nevertheless, the age of consent in the state is sixteen, which means that the victim was under that age.

The charges against the man include accosting a child for im-oral purposes, intentional dissemination of se*ually explicit material, and using a computer to commit a crime, according to a report published in Daily Mail. Unfortunately, the state law is not too hard on suspected criminals like him. He faces just four years in prison for accosting an underage child for i-moral purposes, as well as a fine of $4,000. In addition, he could be slapped with a year behind bars for intentionally disseminating se-ual material to a child, as well as up for four years behind bars for using a computer to commit a crime.
