In Limestone County, authorities have charged a man with the possession of child pornography with the intent to distribute it. The individual, identified as 51-year-old William Blake Ford, is alleged to have had materials depicting child sexual abuse, which included images of a minor under the age of 17 engaged in sexual acts. Ford was taken into custody on Monday, June 2nd, and is facing charges related to his intention to disseminate these illicit materials. At this time, no bond has been set for his release.
Court records reveal that this is not Ford’s first encounter with the law regarding child pornography. He was previously charged with similar offenses, but those charges were dismissed in 2021. However, the court documents do not provide any explanation for why the earlier accusations were dropped. The case continues to unfold as authorities investigate further.
