The State Police Computer Crimes Unit, working with Homeland Security, has charged two men this week with possessing child pornography. The arrests took place in Wiscasset and China following investigations which started in March. The two cases are unrelated. 

 

In Wiscasset May 13, Casey Leavitt, 28, of Lowell Town Road was arrested at his home. He was taken to Two Bridges Regional Jail in Wiscasset and has a court date scheduled for July. Investigators found over 100 alleged images of young children on his cell phone, seized in March.

 

In China, Jeffery George, 38, of Dirigo Road was arrested at his home May 11.  He was taken to Kennebec County Jail. His court appearance is set for July 20. George's electronic devices were analyzed after investigators seized them in March. George is a lifetime registrant on Maine's sex offender list.  

 

Both men are charged with possessing sexually explicit material of someone under the age of 12.
