Investigators with Harris County Constable Mark Herman’s Office Criminal Investigations Division received information from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children regarding an individual in the Humble, Texas area believed to be in possession of Child Pornography. Investigators identified the suspect as Joshua Janecka. Investigators were able to determine that Janecka had been electronically sharing and storing images of Child Pornography.
Further investigation by the Harris County Precinct 4 High Tech Crimes unit found Janecka to currently be employed as a music teacher for an Elementary School in the Dayton Independent School District. In addition he is believed to have been associated with the Boy Scouts of America, as a scout leader, and swim instructor for children for several years.
Based on the investigation, a search warrant for Janecka’s residence was executed in the early hours of April 04, 2018, and yielded an abundance of images, literature, and videos of children being sexually exploited and sexually assaulted. Investigators also went to his school and seized his computer for analysis. The investigation will continue with detailed forensic exams of the remaining electronic devices found in Janecka’s possession in order to determine the magnitude of the child pornography.
“As a result of the child pornography recovered at his home, Joshua Janecka was arrested and booked into the Harris County Jail, charged with five counts of Possession of Child Pornography and one count of Promotion of Child Pornography. His total bond was set at $22,500.00.” -Constable Mark Herman
