Osprey man charged with possession of child porn

A 31-year-old Osprey man has been arrested on numerous child pornography charges.

Ryan Ladd, of 128 Patterson Ave., is charged with 10 counts of possession of photographs of sexual conduct by a child and one count of promoting a sexual performance by a child.

The three-month investigation began when a photo-processing Web site discovered Ladd’s photos and called authorities.

Ladd’s computer contained many images and movies of child pornography.
