Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier announced charges against a Kissimmee man on 100 felony counts for allegedly possessing and transmitting child sex abuse material and materials depicting sexual activity with animals.
He made the announcement while speaking at a press conference in Orlando this week.
The charges stem from a Cyber Tipline report from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children regarding activity on a Snapchat account of Jerry Jesus Reyes. According to Attorney General Uthmeier, Osceola County Sheriff’s Office Internet Crimes Against Children Unit linked the account to Reyes and found multiple files depicting the sexual abuse of young children and videos of prohibited sexual activity involving a person and an animal.
“There is nothing more evil than the sexual exploitation of children, and anyone who possesses, shares, or creates these images is an active participant in that abuse. Predators who traffic in the abuse of children and animals have no place in Florida," Uthmeier said in a release.
Possess child sexual abuse material. Share it. Or build the tool that makes it.

Reyes is charged with one count of transmission of child pornography by electronic device or equipment, several counts of unlawful possession of materials depicting sexual performance by a child, and multiple counts of unlawful possession of materials depicting sexual activity with animals.
If convicted, Reyes faces decades in prison. He is currently being held in the Osceola County Jail on a $100,000 bond on conditions that include no access to the internet and no contact with minor children.
Attorney General Uthmeier also announced a civil lawsuit against Rengstorff Consulting Ltd, the operator of the A2E AI platform and associated mobile applications, for allegedly providing tools for users to create child sexual abuse material and upload non-consensual sexual images of Floridians, including children.
AI-generated child sexual abuse material is a criminal offense under Florida law.
"Despite purported prohibitions in its terms of service, A2E fails to implement meaningful monitoring, consent verification, account termination, or reporting to law enforcement," the release states.
Attorney General Uthmeier is looking for a permanent injunction in the lawsuit, including banning Rengstorff Consulting from "offering generative AI products that allow users to create, view, possess, or transmit non-consensual sexualized images or child sexual abuse material."
The lawsuit also calls for equitable relief, disgorgement of ill-gotten gains, and civil penalties of up to $10,000 per violation under the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act.
"Companies that design and profit from AI tools that make it easier to generate child sexual abuse material or ‘nudify’ non-consenting people—while claiming they prohibit it—will be held accountable," Uthmeier said.
