Somerville man arrested for sending obscene material to child

SOMERVILLE, Ala. (WHNT) – The Somerville Police Department (SPD) says it has arrested a man for sending pornographic material to a minor.

SPD Sgt. Aaron Anderson said the department arrested Issac Stone Williams of Somerville on Friday and charged him with transmitting obscene material to a minor after a year-long investigation.

Anderson said a teenager went missing from her home in August last year. He said after officers arrived at the home, they began canvassing the area and eventually located the juvenile at Williams’ home and returned him to her father.

Authorities said that later that night, the teen’s father reported to SPD that he searched his child’s phone and found that Williams had sent the child pornographic images.

Anderson said an arrest warrant was obtained for Williams earlier this week.
