The Georgia Bureau of Investigation’s Child Exploitation and Computer Crimes Unit, with the assistance of the Muscogee County Sheriff’s Office and the GBI Columbus office, executed two residential search warrants related to separate investigations involving the Sexual Exploitation of Children.
“The investigations began after the GBI CEACC Unit, the host agency for the Georgia Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force, received numerous independent and unrelated cybertips from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC),” Georgia Bureau of Investigations said. “Those cybertips involved the possession and/or distribution of explicit child sexual abuse material, commonly referred to as child pornography, which resolved to Muscogee County, GA.”
42-year-old Jeffrey Shane Garmon was charged with four counts of Sexual Exploitation of Children (Possession of Child Pornography) and 38-year-old
Adam Page was charged with four counts of Sexual Exploitation of Children (Possession of Child Pornography). Garmon and Page were transported to the Muscogee County Jail.
Georgia Bureau of Investigations said the investigation is part of the ongoing effort by the Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force, housed within the GBI’s Child Exploitation and Computer Crimes Unit, to identify those involved in the child pornography trade.
