Lynchburg man arrested

Andrew Joseph O’Hop, 29, has been arrested in Lynchburg on multiple charges including possession of child pornography and sexual abuse of animals, following an investigation that began in January when a cloud storage account was flagged for suspected abuse material. In a separate case, a Greenville man named Stokes was arrested for sexual exploitation of a minor on July 30, while out on bond from a previous similar charge, and he will be prosecuted by the Attorney General’s Office. Additionally, Luke Elijah Hoekstra, 22, was arrested in Greenville, Michigan, amid a human trafficking investigation, facing charges related to child exploitation. These arrests highlight ongoing concerns regarding sexual crimes against minors and animal abuse, as law enforcement continues to crack down on such offenses.
