Collier County Sheriff’s Office detectives announced Wednesday the arrest of an Immokalee man they say is guilty of child pornography.
They arrested Jeremiah Gutierrez, 24, on more than 100 counts of child pornography after executing a search warrant on Tuesday.
Twitter and Snapchat sent cyber tips to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, which helped detectives arrest Gutierrez, of the 1000 block of Raulerson Road.

The juveniles ranged in age from 5 to 16, according to the arrest report.
Authorities found several other digital media devices in his room and recovered them for forensic examination.
The investigation also revealed a text conversation between Gutierrez and a teenage boy, who detectives said Gutierrez lured into sending seven sexual images and videos of himself.
Gutierrez charged with 100 counts of possession of child pornography; six counts of broadcasting child pornography; a charge of promoting obscene material; and one count of using a computer to entice, solicit, or entice a child.
Authorities say the investigation is ongoing. Gutierrez is due in court on November 21.
