A 34-year-old Grand Bay man, Keigh Hodges, was arrested by Mobile police on Wednesday morning following a search warrant execution at his home on Fernland Road. Officers from the Mobile Police Department’s Child Abuse Detail, SWAT, and K-9 Unit participated in the operation around 6:30 AM, which resulted in Hodges’ arrest without incident and no reported injuries.
Hodges is facing multiple charges from the Mobile County District Attorney’s Office, including five counts of child sexual abuse material production, five counts of possession of child sexual abuse material, one count of disseminating child sexual abuse material, and one count of first-degree human trafficking.
The investigation, which led to the search and arrest, highlights the ongoing efforts by law enforcement to combat human trafficking and the exploitation of children.
