Cambria Man Faces Child Porn and Drug Charges

San Luis Obispo County sheriff’s deputies arrested Christopher John Kehoe, 49, of Cambria early Wednesday morning at his home located at 2555 Wilcombe Road.

Detectives with the Sheriff’s Sexual Assault Unit, Narcotics Unit and the Gang Task Force served a search warrant at Kehoe’s home where they believe he downloaded and distributed child pornography.

Authorities allegedly discovered a computer containing child pornography including more than 600 images of pubescent children engaged in sexual acts.

Detectives do not believe Kehoe was manufacturing the child pornography at the home. They believe the images were downloaded from the internet and then distributed.

Other computers were seized during the search. They are being analyzed for any additional child pornography. Deputies also allegedly found about six ounces of methamphetamine in the house.

Kehoe was arrested and faces two counts of possession and distribution of child pornography and one count of possession of a controlled substance for sale.
