SBPD arrests man for possession of child pornography
SANTA BARBARA — The Santa Barbara Police Department and the Los Angeles Police Department Internet Crimes Against Children Taskforce arrested former Santa Barbara resident Jostin W. Artiga-Sanchez, 25, for the possession of child pornography.
He allegedly used a social media application to receive illicit photos of a juvenile.
The investigation began when the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children sent a tip to the Santa Barbara Police Department Investigative Division. NCMEC believed he was living in Santa Barbara and receiving pornographic photos of a child.
At the time the crimes were allegedly committed, Mr. Artiga-Sanchez resided in Santa Barbara but had since moved to Los Angeles.
Santa Barbara Police and ICAC affiliates arrested the suspect on Sept. 9 in Los Angeles.
He was booked in the Santa Barbara County jail for felony possession of child pornography. Bail is set at $20,000.
Anyone that knows of or believes a child is being exploited is urged to contact SBPD at (805) 897-2355 or the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children tip line at missingkids.org/gethelpnow/cybertipline.
