Moss Bluff Man Arrested for Possession of Child Pornography

On May 8, 2013, investigators with the Louisiana State Police Bureau of Investigations and U.S. Homeland Security Investigations conducted a search warrant at a residence in the community of Moss Bluff in Calcasieu Parish. The search warrant was obtained as the result of an Operation Child Watch investigation into the suspected downloading of child pornography.

A search of the residence of 66-year-old Gary Donahoo of Moss Bluff resulted in the seizure of several computers. During questioning, Donahoo admitted to downloading sexually explicit images of children from the Internet.

Troopers arrested Donahoo for pornography involving juveniles and booked him into the Calcasieu Parish Correctional Center.

If convicted, Donahoo faces up to a $50,000 fine and from five to twenty years in prison without benefit of parole, probation, or suspension of sentence.

The mission of Operation Child Watch is to rescue children from the potential abuse of child predators by targeting those individuals with sexually explicit images and/or videos on their computers. This is an ongoing effort, in cooperation with other law enforcement agencies.
