WAVERLY, Tenn. (WTVF) — A Waverly man is facing dozens of felony charges following a grand jury indictment related to an investigation into child sexual exploitation.
According to a press release from the Waverly Department of Public Safety, James Tyler Dabbs, 33, was indicted Monday by a Humphreys County Grand Jury on 68 counts of sexual exploitation of a minor.
Authorities said the charges stem from an investigation by the Waverly Police Department, after multiple explicit images and videos were allegedly discovered on Dabbs’ electronic devices during the execution of a search warrant.
Dabbs is being held on a $750,000 bond at the Humphreys County Jail.
Police said the investigation remains active. Anyone with information is asked to contact Detective Ron Netterville with the Waverly Police Department.
As we honor those who have served our country and made the ultimate sacrifice, it is also heartening to see the military right a wrong. Chris Davis brings us the moving story of a Purple Heart ceremony two decades in the making. It's worth a watch.
A heartfelt thanks to all who bravely serve.
