Tennessee: Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force arrests La Vergne man

The Dickson Herald. 11/02/07. By Heather Donahoe

A La Vergne man was arrested today and charged with receipt, possession and distribution of child pornography by Franklin Police Department's Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, in conjunction with the US Secret Service. Brian J. Files, 46, was indicted recently by the federal grand jury of the Middle Tennessee district, according to a news release from Franklin Police. Charges against Files resulted from a lengthy investigation initiated by the Connecticut State Police Computer Crimes and Electronic Evidence Unit in 2004. Information obtained in that investigation led authorities to the Knoxville Police Department's ICAC unit, which coordinated with Franklin's unit on an investigation. Files was turned over to federal authorities today. A detention hearing for him is set for Tuesday.
