Review-Journal<\/em> said.<\/strong><\/p>\nA LinkedIn profile could not be viewed as of Sunday. “This profile is not available,” the site stated when Testagrossa’s profile was clicked on. Also, a scheduled professional conference associated with Catersource that apparently once featured him as a speaker said on its website, “The speaker you are looking for does not exist or has been recently removed.”<\/p>\n
Email correspondence linked to Testagrossa and discovered during the police investigation included a signature with several professional designations: \u201cCMP, CPCE and CHE,\u201d KLAS, a local TV station, reported.<\/p>\n
The acronyms are known as certifications in the hospitality, catering, and event planning sector.<\/p>\n
CMP stands for Certified Meeting Professional. CPCE stands for Certified Professional in Catering & Events. CHE stands for Certified Hospitality Educator.<\/p>\n
Testagrossa faces two counts of possession of visual pornography of a person less than 16, and a single count of preparing, advertising, or distributing pornography with a minor, court records quoted by the Review-Journal<\/em> said.<\/p>\nYahoo! Notifies Authorities<\/h2>\n The inquiry began last August, after Yahoo! reported concerns about online activity, KLAS said. It related to a Yahoo! user who allegedly uploaded child porn, KLAS adds.<\/p>\n
Initially involved were two images and two videos of suspected child porn, the Review-Journal<\/em> reported.<\/p>\nMetro police later conducted a court-approved online search. Cops claim they discovered more photos and videos of suspected child porn. They were allegedly sent and received through Testagrossa\u2019s email account.<\/p>\n
Police claim they discovered three images on his cellphone. Forty images were found on his computer, police said. They allegedly contained child porn, the Review-Journal<\/em> said.<\/p>\nTestagrossa was questioned about the online activity. He allegedly told Metro police he was involved with online groups \u201cthat shared materials.\u201d<\/p>\n
The online images showed \u201cchildren being sexually assaulted,” the arrest report said. The groups contained images of infants and toddlers, KLAS claimed in its report.<\/strong><\/p>\nTestagrossa confirmed to police he viewed \u201cthis kind of material on his\u201d phone, the news report said. He \u201cdenied seeking out the images,\u201d KLAS adds.<\/p>\n
Testagrossa was arrested earlier this month. He was released after posting bond. He is scheduled to appear in local court on May 10.<\/p>\n
An attorney representing Testagrossa\u00a0did not respond to KLAS\u2019 request for information, the station reported.<\/p>\n
