A Calhoun man is in the Ouachita Parish correctional center charged with 400 counts of child porn and 100 counts of sexual abuse of an animal.  Trooper Brent Hardy says the investigation of 40-year-old Keith Taylor began in April when the Special Victims Unit received information that Taylor in possession of, and possibly distributing, inappropriate content online.

“These counts include the possession of images and videos that involve the sexual abuse of children and animals,” said Hardy.

The investigation was conducted with the help of multiple agencies including the FBI, the Louisiana AG’s office, and the Ouachita Parish Sheriff’s office.  Hardy says the allegations have likely shaken the community.

“Calhoun is a very small community and a very close-knit community.  A lot of people around Calhoun probably knows Mr. Taylor,” said Hardy.
