According to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE), its agents arrested Gary Alan Grimm, 43, of Pensacola, on five counts of promoting the sexual performance of a child and five counts of possession of child sexual abuse material. Both charges are felonies.

The FDLE said Grimm is a registered sex offender.

The FDLE said its investigation began in August when agents allegedly discovered a device sharing images of child sexual abuse material online. Investigators said they tracked the device’s IP address to a Pensacola residence shared by multiple registered sexual offenders.

Agents executed a search warrant at the residence Tuesday and said they located a device that contained child sexual abuse material in Grimm’s sleeping area. Another device, also reportedly containing child sexual abuse material, was reportedly found hidden inside a trash bag elsewhere in the home by K9 Maple, one of FDLE’s Electronic Storage Detection (ESD) canine officers, the FDLE said.

According to the FDLE, additional charges for other registered sex offenders allegedly living at the address may follow, pending further forensic analysis of electronic devices seized at the residence.

The Escambia County Sheriff’s Office, the FBI, and Homeland Security Investigations assisted FDLE with executing the search warrant.

Grimm was booked into the Escambia County Jail and ordered held without bond pending first appearance. The case will be prosecuted by the State Attorney’s Office, First Judicial Circuit.
