Police Detectives and the FBI, have arrested a 21-year-old Norton man on several charges including possession of child pornography late last week.
The Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force investigation into Sam McKown started about three months ago. When McKown was arrested at his Norton home back on January 6th, in addition to child porn, police found a ballistics vest, a police patch, and expandable baton, and handcuffs.
A lawyer for McKown says that those materials were unrelated to the child pornography that was found, that they were given to him as a gift from a family member.
McKown has not been formally indicted yet.
