Precinct 4 Says Traffic Stop Turned Into Felony Bust
According to Constable Mark Herman's Office, deputies pulled over a vehicle in the 4800 block of Louetta Road and identified the driver as Steven Anthony Delafuente. The social media post states that Delafuente had three active warrants for “first degree felony possession of child pornography video/film.” Deputies then booked him and transported him to the Harris County Jail.
Records Point To Earlier Harris County Booking
Public booking records compiled by BustedNewspaper show a Dec. 19, 2025, Harris County booking for a Steven Anthony Delafuente on three counts labeled “POSS OF CHILD PORN VIDEO/FILM.” The constable’s office did not specify how that earlier booking relates to the active warrants mentioned in Thursday’s post.
Where To Find Custody And Jail Information
The Harris County Sheriff’s Office runs an online inmate search tool that provides custody and booking information, along with facility addresses and phone numbers for people being held. Per the Harris County Sheriff's Office, the main county jail is located at 700 N. San Jacinto in downtown Houston.
Possible Penalties And What Happens Next
Possession or promotion of child pornography is charged under Texas Penal Code §43.26, which uses a tiered penalty system. A first-degree felony conviction can carry a sentence of five to 99 years or life in prison, depending on the circumstances, as outlined in state law. Delafuente remains presumed innocent at this stage; according to Constable Mark Herman's Office, the 228th District Court has not set bond and will oversee upcoming proceedings.
