MIDLAND, Texas - Another Texan has been arrested in "Operation Candyman," a nationwide child pornography sweep announced earlier this week.
Joel Kinzie Oldham III of Midland was arrested on Wednesday and charged with knowingly receiving visual depictions of children engaged in sexually explicit conduct and knowingly possessing the material, according to a news release from the FBI.
If convicted, Oldham faces up to 15 years in prison.
Oldham is the ninth Texan to be jailed in the sting that resulted in arrests across the nation, including that of an Athens man and seven others from Southeast Texas.
The effort targeted members of three Internet discussion groups on Yahoo Inc.'s Web site.
The FBI expects to arrest at least 50 more people by week's end as it breaks up an Internet child-pornography ring that allegedly included two Catholic priests, six other members of the clergy, a school bus driver and a civilian law enforcement employee.
One of them, Mark Bates, an unemployed truck driver from Athens, is accused of being the news groups' moderator, or leader.
Bates, 32, faces a detention hearing at federal court in Tyler on Thursday.
