SACRAMENTO, CA — “The Sacramento Valley Hi-Tech Crimes Task Force was made aware of a Google account uploading videos and images of Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM) (commonly referred to as Child Pornography) from a location in Sacramento County. Google made a Cybertip referral to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) and specifically advised some of the content being uploaded appeared to be newly created or produced CSAM. Detectives identified the account holder as 39-year-old Adam Fitzgerald Williams. Additional evidence revealed Williams had recorded himself performing various acts of sexual abuse with multiple female children. The children ranged in age from infant to pubescent over a span of numerous years throughout California and Nevada.
