TC Man Charged With Distributing Child Pornography

By Beth Milligan | March 10, 2023

A tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children led to the arrest of a Traverse City man for possessing and distributing child pornography.

According to the Michigan State Police, a search of the home of 43-year-old Edward Dwayne Fay resulted in numerous Internet-connected devices being seized. Fay was charged with two counts of aggravated possession of child sexually abusive material, one count of aggravated distributing/promoting child sexually abusive activity, one count of using a computer to commit a crime, and one count of lying to a peace officer. Fay was arraigned Wednesday in 86th District Court.

The Michigan State Police Computer Crimes Unit/Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force was assisted in the case by the MSP Cadillac Post, the MSP Canine Team, and Homeland Security Investigations.
