Los Angeles police and federal investigators are asking for the public’s help in identifying potential additional victims after a 28-year-old Las Vegas man who worked in childcare across the Los Angeles area was arrested on child pornography charges.
Detectives from the Los Angeles Police Department’s Juvenile Division, Internet Crimes Against Children Unit, along with special agents from Homeland Security Investigations–Ventura, took Miguel Adrian Gonzalez into custody on October 24, 2025, on one felony count of possession of child or youth pornography. Gonzalez remains jailed under booking number 7115226 while awaiting arraignment.
Authorities say Gonzalez has worked at numerous schools, after-school programs, and youth camps throughout Los Angeles County. At least one minor victim has been identified, and investigators believe there may be others, particularly male minors who may have been under his supervision.
Gonzalez is described as a Hispanic man, 5 feet 5 inches tall, weighing 115 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. Investigators have released his booking photo to help locate additional victims.
