OSBI Unit Arrests Hydro Man on Child Pornography Charges

HYDRO, Okla. – Agents from the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI), assisted by officers from the Caddo County Sheriffs Office and the Hydro Police Department, served a search warrant in the 100 block of East Main Street in Hydro yesterday. As a result of the search warrant, 20-year-old Austin Michael Glenn was arrested and faces multiple child pornography charges.

The case originated in August when the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) forwarded a cyber tip they received from an electronic service provider to the OSBI. The OSBI Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Unit opened an investigation upon receiving the tip. Based on their investigation, Glenn was arrested yesterday without incident and booked into the Caddo County Jail.

Glenn is charged with Possession of Child Pornography, Distribution of Child Pornography and Violation of the Oklahoma Computer Crimes Act.
