Beaverton Police Department Conducts Child Sexual Abuse Material Investigations Over The Weekend (Photo) - 06/08/26

On Saturday, June 6, 2026, detectives with the Beaverton Police Department conducted follow-up investigations based on information received from community members and the Oregon Department of Justice, regarding the unlawful possession of child sexual abuse material (CSAM) in the community.

Child sexual abuse material investigations involve the exploitation and victimization of children. Each image or video represents the abuse of a child and underscores the importance of identifying offenders, protecting victims, and preventing further harm.

As part of Saturday’s enforcement efforts, detectives contacted suspects in five separate investigations in Beaverton. During the investigations, detectives seized numerous electronic devices for forensic examination and developed evidence resulting in multiple ongoing criminal investigations.

The Beaverton Police Department remains committed to protecting children and working in partnership with local, state, and federal agencies to investigate crimes involving the sexual exploitation of children. These investigations play a critical role in disrupting the distribution of child sexual abuse material, identifying offenders, and safeguarding vulnerable members of our community.

Anyone with information related to the exploitation of children is encouraged to report it to law enforcement. Reports may also be made through the Cyber Tipline operated by the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children at www.missingkids.org.
