A Bristow man has been arrested following a disturbing investigation into child exploitation. On December 23, Prince William County detectives—alongside the DC/Northern Virginia Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force—executed a search warrant at a residence on Benton Lake Road in Bristow VA.
Authorities arrested Bryan Barahona-Peraza, 34, at the home without incident. Investigators say Barahona-Peraza had been soliciting underaged minors online for sexual purposes. Electronic evidence was seized from the home, supporting the charges.
He has been charged with the production of child pornography, use of a communication system to create child pornography, and use of a communication system to solicit sexual acts. He is currently being held without bond, and a court date is pending.
