A 28-year-old San Luis Obispo man is in jail after officers discovered he had over 600 files of child pornography.

Social media sites such as Facebook, Google, Reddit provide Cybertips to law enforcement if someone using their platform is found to be uploading videos or images of child pornography. These Cybertips are then forwarded to the appropriate jurisdiction for investigation depending on the physical location.

After three separate Cybertips, a complex investigation and over 600 reported files of Child Sexual Abuse Material, San Luis Obispo police detectives arrested David Hurley at his work in Los Osos on Wednesday for felony possession and distribution of child pornography.

Detectives then served a search warrant at Hurley’s residence on the 1000 block of Pismo Avenue and in Los Osos where they seized electronic devices for evidence.

Officers booked Hurley in San Luis Obispo County Jail on charges of felony possession of child sexual abuse material and distribution of child porn. He remains in jail with his bail set at $40,000.

The investigation is ongoing. Investigators are asking anyone with information related to this arrest to contact Detective Marques at (805) 594-8060 or Crime Stoppers at (805) 549-7867.

Not sure what a local pedo has to do with national politics. Certain politicians at the highest levels in America were able to convince law enforcement and spy agency heads to conspire against political candidates, well, I guess anything is possible. Yeah, arrest and prosecute this local pedo, and jail Hillary too. Seems logical, right perspective 24?


MAYBE TRUMP WILL PARDON HIM… BIRDS OF A FEATHER; YA KNOW.


Perspective24-please look in the mirror and you will a severe case of TDS Trump Derangement Syndrome i.e. a person who will never see anything beyond their absolute hatred of Trump.

As much as I may have disliked Clinton and Obama, I would always acknowledge those things that were positive, and there were some.


Until you and other with TDS are able to do that, we will never be able to succeed as a COUNTRY.


It is Trump and Republicans blocking actual democracy and conversation… How can you be so delusional to think otherwise? At no point were democrats skipping votes and firing people for nothing but their political affiliation regardless of work performed. Trump and his like are the ones obsessed with Biden and Obama. What planet are you on?


C’mon, who drove around with flags, tattoos, painted their faces, set up booths with Trump paraphernalia? Trump worshipers. They bought his shoes, bibles, shirts, hats, and all the while saying they supported the constitution and the law. He’s guilty of child trafficking and admitted that he had a falling out with Epstein because Epstein was stealing young girls from him. We don’t know if he was concerned that they’d snitch and be out of his site, or if he didn’t get to be her 1st. Trump is a rapist, convicted sexual assailant, bragged about it, and people that call him out have TDS. Stop supporting a rapist.,


This person is an idiot.


Right. Trump would never pardon a pedophile, unless they were a millionaire or blackmailing him.
