On December 17, 2024, Davi Borges Dos Santos, 24, was arrested in West Bridgewater on charges of possessing child pornography and distributing obscene materials. The arrest followed a tip from the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children about child abuse material being shared through an instant messaging app. Investigators linked the activity to Dos Santos but confirmed no children in his home were involved, according to the West Bridgewater Police Department.
A coordinated effort by the West Bridgewater Police, W.E.B. Task Force, and Massachusetts State Police Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force led to the execution of a search warrant at Dos Santos's residence last Tuesday.The search included the seizure of two electronic devices believed to belong to Dos Santos, as reported by the West Bridgewater Police Department.
On Tuesday, State Police confirmed the discovery of five videos containing child sexual abuse materials on a device linked to Dos Santos, leading to his arrest the following day at his residence. He was arraigned in Brockton District Court on Wednesday, as stated by the West Bridgewater Police Department.
