Tulsa County man arrested for child pornography

TULSA COUNTY — The Tulsa County Sheriff’s Office Child Predator Unit arrested a Tulsa County man Thursday on felony charges of possession and distribution of child pornography.

A tipster alerted the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force and the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation about a Kik messenger account belonging to 24-year-old Benjamin McCracken that contained explicate images of child pornography.

Investigators searched McCraken’s account and uncovered nearly 140 images and videos of the sexual abuse of little girls, some as young as babies.

Records show he shared these materials with numerous other Kik users.
