A New Hampshire man with a history of sexual offenses has been arrested once again, this time on allegations of child pornography and contacting a minor through Snapchat, according to Boston 25 News. Harrison S. Chambers, 36, hailing from Keene, faces multiple charges comprised of felony indecent exposure by reportedly sending obscene images to a child under 16, endangering the welfare of a child, possession of child sexual abuse material, and failing to comply with his obligatory sex offender reporting duties, authorities said.
Chambers was apprehended Friday by the New Hampshire Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, which included state police; his criminal past includes a 2016 conviction for felonious sexual assault on a minor under 16 and possession of child sex abuse images, which is listed on the New Hampshire State Police criminal offenders database. His most recent accusations arose after a May 2024 investigation was triggered by a report of someone using Snapchat to engage wrongly with an individual believed to be under the age of 16 – a subsequent inquiry led the law enforcement to identify Chambers as the suspect using the social media platform to establish and possibly even maintain these reprehensible communications.
As reported by the Union Leader, during the arrest, Chambers was taken into custody with the assistance of the Keene Police Department, and he is currently being held under preventative detention, he awaits a court appearance scheduled for Monday at Keene District Court. State police have indicated they hold concerns that Chambers may have furthered his abuse of social media platforms to form contats with other minors, and they're calling for the public's help to bring additional details to light.
The state's investigation into Chamber's interactions with children is persisting and there's a strong likelihood that additional charges might follow once the digital evidence seized is carefully analyzed by forensics experts, with anyone who may have information that could aid the police in their inquiry encouraged to get in touch with Detective Edward Horton at 603-931-0660 or by email at [email protected] – these directives were explicitly shared by law enforcement in their community outreach for assistance in the case against Chambers, a man once again under the legal scrutiny urging a closer look into the digital shadows where he may have lurked.
