Miami man busted with more than a dozen child sex abuse videos, police say
A Miami man was cuffed and jailed this week after officers found his collection of more than a dozen child sexual abuse videos, police said.
In October, through a cyber tip, Miami police were notified of child pornography being uploaded to a Dropbox account, which was later connected to Brandon Alexander Cotton, 38, according to an arrest report.
On Tuesday, Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force officers raided Cotton’s Brickell home, executing a search warrant to find the abuse videos they were tipped off to.
According to officers, Cotton spoke to authorities and told them he owned the Dropbox account that was deactivated. He went on to say the account had a folder where he saved multiple videos of child sexual abuse.
A hard drive was seized and officers found 15 videos of sexual abuse depicting many children aged at least a month old to 7 years old.
Cotton was arrested and charged with 15 counts of possession of sexual performance by a child. As of Thursday night, he remained in the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center on a $37,500 bond.
