The investigation reportedly dates back to September 2023, when an FBI agent identified 37-year-old Bradley Callahan’s IP address tied to an account subscribed to a dark web child pornography website.
Court documents note that since creating the account, Callahan has made references to his “collection,” making at least 29 posts distributing or commenting on links containing CSAM involving children as young as under eight years old.
An affidavit reported the site was shut down in 2024, and the FBI began surveillance on Callahan’s home in March 2025.
A special agent approached Callahan on Wednesday, March 12, at Ambulance Incorporated of Laurel County, where he served as a paramedic, and agreed to accompany them for an interview. There he allegedly admitted to accessing two CSAM networks via the dark web and connecting with other users to “trade material” on other sites, like Instagram.
Court documents state that according to Callahan, the last time he accessed child pornography was around Monday, March 10, and he had CSAM saved on his laptop.
Callahan was arrested on March 12 on distribution of child pornography and possession of child pornography charges.
