Security Guard Sought Naked Baby-Toddler Pictures From Moms
LAS VEGAS NV April 6 2019
A press release today from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department announced the disturbing arrest of a security guard who is accused of asking mothers online for naked photos of their toddlers and babies.
Las Vegas police said that the man, identified as Tylor Pollard, 22, admitted to police that toddlers turn him on and he needs to get help.
“In this case, we now have a child predator in custody,” said Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Officer Larry Hadfield.
The press release said Pollard was searching for single mothers online to date and then would ask for naked pictures of toddlers, babies and even infants.
Police were notified by a participant who was part of a Facebook mom’s group of a post she saw that she thought was strange,” explained Hadfield.
In an email to police, the mother wrote, “It seems that he is comfortable with asking for naked pics of children.”
“We discovered that this individual had been soliciting pictures or photographs in the areas of one to four from mothers,” said Hadfield.
Metro police detectives found photos of child porn on Pollard’s phone.
They also found messages between Pollard and numerous women.
Police have also revealed that some of the mothers sent Pollard photos of their children and that in some cases, they received money. Detectives are currently trying to identify those women.
During that interview, police said Pollard “admitted he has a problem and that he is sexually turned on by toddlers from one to four years old”
At the time of his arrest, Pollard was a security guard at the Downtown Summerlin, an entertainment district with restaurants, retail stores and entertainment venues.
Police do not know if he used his position to solicit pictures or if he tried meeting mothers while on duty.
Pollard’s bail is set at $25,000.
Court records indicate that if he makes bail, a judge has ordered him to be electronically monitored, he cannot be alone with kids and has to stay off of the internet.
