A Clayton County 17-year-old is accused of sharing images online of toddlers being sexually abused, the GBI said Tuesday.

In December, a tipster reported an online user who was sharing images depicting the sexual exploitation of young children, according to a GBI spokeswoman. That tip led investigators to Jeremiah Anderson.

On Friday, the GBI and Clayton County fugitive squad executed a search warrant at Anderson’s home. He was later arrested and charged with six counts of possession of child sexual abuse material and five counts of distributing child pornography, the GBI said. Anderson was booked into the Clayton jail.

Anyone with information about other cases of child exploitation is asked to contact the GBI’s Child Exploitation Unit at 404-270-8870.
