According to the Ventura County District Attorney, priest Rodolfo Martinez-Guevara possessed over 600 images and videos of child pornography.
Ventura County prosecutors have charged a Long Beach priest for possessing more than 600 images and videos containing child pornography.
The District Attorney's Office identified the priest as Rodolfo Martinez-Guevara, who is part of the Archdioceses of Los Angeles. They described the photos and videos that he allegedly possessed as"child sexual abuse material." Authorities said the files mostly depicted boys, some of whom were"prepubescent minors under the age of 12."
Investigators began building their case against Martinez-Guevara after the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children received several reports about the priest. The NCMEC is a private nonprofit that has received funding from the United States Department of Justice for decades.
