VICTORVILLE, Calif. (VVNG.com) – Detectives with the Redlands Police Department arrested a 30-year-old Victorville man for possession and distribution of nearly 3,000 child sexual abuse images after receiving two cyber tips from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC).

Bradley Clarence Peck was arrested on Tuesday, August 13, 2024, during a traffic stop near his home in the 13300 block of First Avenue in Victorville.

Redlands police said Peck worked for a company with offices in Redlands and Rancho Cucamonga, but did not release the company name.

Detectives executed a search warrant in the apartment and seized numerous electronic devices containing over 2,950 images depicting child sexual abuse.

“Investigators determined that Peck used a KIK messenger app account to upload multiple CSAM files to other users in approximately 20 transactions. Peck sold the images through KIK and other online apps in exchange for Amazon gift cards and cash transactions to his Pay Pal and Cash App accounts,” officials said.

Peck was booked into the Central Detention Center in San Bernardino on Tuesday. He was released on $30,000 bail on Wednesday.

This investigation is part of an ongoing operation by the Internet Crimes Against Children (Online Guardian 2.0) Regional Task Force, which is designed to combat the sexual exploitation of children online. The Regional Task Force includes law enforcement agencies from San Bernardino, Los Angeles, Orange, Ventura and Santa Barbara counties.
