Authorities: “Numerous Unknown Victims” Possible in Massive Porn Bust

NACOGDOCHES � A Nacogdoches County man was arrested after investigators discovered hidden cameras throughout his house and “massive amounts of pornography,” according to authorities. KETK reports authorities had received information that Justin Lejeune, 31, was secretly recording visitors in his house on FM 3314. They obtained a search warrant, which was executed around 10:30 a.m. on Thursday. While investigating, Nacogdoches County Sheriff officials and the Texas Rangers allegedly found several cameras aimed at secluded locations, such as bathrooms and guest bedrooms. There were numerous homemade video recordings of people who were unknowingly being taped, officials say. Lejeune’s computer was also allegedly found to have many images of child pornography.

In total, investigators seized three computers, several additional electronic items, DVDs, notebooks, and components of pornography, according to law enforcement personnel. Lejeune was not at home during the search, but authorities found him at work. During an interview with him, Lejeune confessed to the pornography and secret video tapes, according to officials. He was taken into custody and charged with child pornography, which is a 2nd degree felony.

“The evidence discovered at the scene leads us to believe that the suspect has been making and recording these homemade videos for over five years,” said Nacogdoches County Sheriff Jason Bridges in a press release. “We also found numerous names inside the suspect’s journal. There could be unknowingly numerous victims out there that we are going to have to identify during this investigation.” Authorities believe that it could take well over a month to go through all of the evidence and identify the victims. The Lufkin Police Department computer forensics will be processing and analyzing the images found on the computers.

An additional warrant has been issued for Lejeune for improper image photography or visual recording, which is a state jail felony, and another charge for the 2nd degree felony charge of possession of child pornography will also be filed. “This appears to be one of the largest pornography cases that we have had in Nacgodoches County in some time,” said Sheriff Bridges.
