FDLE’s operation uncovered Frank Tonin, who was uploading multiple photo and video files of child sexual abuse materials from his device.

Recently, Commissioner Mark Glass was invited by the @FLSheriffs to speak in a discussion panel at the Commanders’ Academy. Commissioner Glass discussed with 40 sheriff’s office leaders about the resources available at FDLE to their agencies, the support that FDLE can provide for investigative and operational endeavors and the opportunities available at FDLE to foster their leadership journey.

FDLE’s investigation found Gary Eugene Adams, was sharing and uploading digital files depicting children being sexually abused on his social media account.

When our South Florida law enforcement partners asked for help finding Yam Perera-Nuñez for fleeing and eluding, battery on a law enforcement officer, grand theft, and multiple out-of-county warrants, FDLE Miami worked alongside investigators to locate Perera-Nuñez. When law enforcement agencies work together to hold criminals like Perera-Nuñez accountable for their crimes, our communities are safer. FDLE continues to support our partners at @FHPMiami , @browardsheriff , @MiamiDade_SO @PoliceHialeah.

Deviancy and greed make an unfathomable combination, one that we will not tolerate. Michael Vanover learned very quickly that uploading child sexual abuse materials to AI to create more files has immediate consequences. Now the Office of the State Attorney, 1st Circuit will make sure he pays for his disgusting crimes. Read more about this arrest here: tinyurl.com/bdce88at

FDLE’s Missing Persons and Offender Enforcement analysts work constantly to ensure sexual offenders, like Alfonso Morrison, remain compliant with Florida’s sexual offender registration laws. Morrison was convicted in 2018 in Illinois for aggravated criminal sexual abuse involving a vulnerable adult and was required to register for life. Instead, he absconded and remained unregistered for years, until he came to Florida. FDLE analysts and inspectors conduct extensive research and analysis alongside our law enforcement partners to hold these offenders accountable. Great work by our FDLE inspectors and analysts and @OrangeCoSheriff.
