Disney worker faces 200 counts of possessing child porn

CLERMONT, Fla. — Detectives from Lake County Sheriff’s Cyber Crimes Unit arrested a Clermont, Fla., man on 200 counts of possessing child pornography.

James Treanor, 32, a food-service worker at Walt Disney World,
explained his interest in child pornography as a “fantasy” and a remedy
for boredom, according to an arrest report filed by Sgt. Chris Loyko.

Detectives learned of Treanor while investigating a larger child-porn, file-sharing network.

Loyko said investigators have found more than 5,000
digital images of children “clearly under the age of 12” unclothed,
engaged in sexual acts or in sexual poses. Some of the images depict
sexual abuse of infants.

The detective said the digital images and more than
75 movies were found on a laptop computer belonging to Treanor and on a
pair of large but portable “thumb” drives seized from him on Christmas Eve.

Treanor told deputies he recently deleted other
images from his computer because he was expecting a friend to stay with
him over Christmas and he knew the images were illegal. Bond was set at
$10,000 per felony count.

He has been in jail since his arrest.
