Dayton police have made eight arrests recently following investigations into child pornography.

During April, which is National Child Abuse Prevention Month, the Dayton Police Department announced some of the ways it is working to help prevent children from being victimized.

“Detectives with the CARE House Unit have been investigating multiple complaints involving child sexual assault material,” according to a statement from the department. “The Dayton Police Department takes (child sexual assault material) investigations very seriously and we hope that this notification will serve as a reminder to have difficult conversations with loved ones about their online activities.”

Police identified eight people who were arrested recently following Montgomery County grand jury indictments in child pornography cases. They are:
