A thorough investigation conducted by the Lee County Sheriff’s Office and the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation has led to the arrest of Jay Poulos, a 52-year-old man from Sanford. Poulos is facing 20 counts of third-degree sexual exploitation of a minor.
The arrest follows a months-long investigation, which uncovered that Poulos was in possession of child sexual abuse material. Authorities arrested him on Wednesday, and he is currently being held in the Lee County Jail with a $250,000 secured bond.
The investigation highlights the ongoing efforts of law enforcement to combat child exploitation and bring those responsible to justice. Poulos faces serious legal consequences, and the investigation is continuing.
