January 23, 2015
Paso Robles police arrested a 51-year-old man after discovering photos and videos of child porn on his computers, some of which they say he created.
After receiving a tip, police served a search warrant on the Paso Robles home of Steven Lindhorst and then analyzed two of his computers. Officers discovered approximately 24,000 images and 200 videos, most containing images of pubescent children engaged in sexual acts.
Officers have identified and contacted 14 of Lindhorst’s victims.
On Wednesday, officers arrested Lindhorst on suspicion of a lewd act with a child under the age of 14, possession of child pornography, possession of explicit child pornography and posting intimate photos of another without their consent. His bail is set at $160,000.
According to Linshorst’s Facebook page, he is former eBay employee who is currently a married “online retailer, writer and ecommerce daredevil.”
