Sulphur man arrested, charged with 22 counts of child porn
LAKE CHARLES, La. (KLFY) -- A Sulphur man was arrested in Lincoln Parish on multiple child porn charges, authorities said.
Charles B. Schrumpf II, 22, of Sulphur is charged with 22 counts of possession of child pornography.
In July 2023, Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office Special Victims Unit detectives working with Homeland Security Investigations and the Louisiana Attorney General’s Office, as part of the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force received a tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children in reference to child sexual abuse material saved to a Snapchat account.
During further investigation, approximately over 20 child porn videos and images were located on an account associated with Schrumpf, officials said. After the execution of numerous search warrants and subpoenas, Judge Tony Fazzio signed a warrant for Schrumpf’s arrest in March 2024.
On Thursday, detectives located Schrumpf in Ruston, where he arrested and booked into the Lincoln Parish Detention Center. He was transported back to the Calcasieu Correctional Center, where he was released later the same day on a $300,000 bond.
