MEDIA RELEASE
Vida G. Bottom, Special Agent in Charge of the Honolulu Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), is seeking the public’s help in providing information that may identify an unknown male suspected of child sexual exploitation, possibly on the Big Island.
The suspect first came to the FBI’s attention in 2010 when a series of photographs surfaced on the Internet depicting the suspect apparently engaging in graphic sex acts with two children: a 4-year-old girl and 9-year-old boy (approximate ages).
These photos were circulated widely among various illegal Internet forums for the sharing of child pornography.
Investigators for the FBI and the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children enhanced one of the photos to develop an image of what appears to be a 2008 Hawaiian Telcom phone book for the Big Island in the background.
This image led investigators to believe that the photos were taken between 2008 and 2010.
A desktop computer in the background of another photo leads investigators to conclude that the photo was likely not taken in a hotel room.
There are no other details linking the suspect to Hawaii.
His identity and current whereabouts are unknown.
The pictured suspect appears to be a white male in his 40s with brown-gray hair and blue eyes.
The public is reminded that no charges have been filed in this case, and the pictured suspect is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law.
Anyone with information to provide should contact the Honolulu FBI office at (808) 566-4300.

Sure hope they finally catch these child molesters and keep them in jail instead of releasing them out on bail to have access to innocent children just cause our jails are over crowded…. they don’t get better with therapy, they just learn to manipulate others better…… children first !!!!
