Detectives launched an investigation and on July 3, 2019, executed search warrants at residences in Danville and Dublin.
Detectives subsequently found child pornography on electronic devices belonging to 18-year-old James Happ of Dublin. He was booked at the Martinez Detention Facility for possession of child pornography. Happ was being held in lieu of $100,000 bail and has since bailed out.
