FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — Broward Sheriff’s Office detectives arrested Keivon McBride twice within one month on charges related to crimes against children and are asking for anyone who may have fell victim to McBride to come forward.
BSO Special Victims Unit detectives arrested McBride Monday, Sept. 28, on five counts of lewd and lascivious battery on a child over the age of 12 and under 16. McBride was arrested again by BSO SVU detectives Wednesday, Oct. 28, on 12 additional charges of lewd and lascivious battery, possession of child pornography and transmission of child pornography over the internet.
McBride has been known to meet young girls between the ages of 12 and 14 through the popular social media app known as Snapchat. Once he meets the young girls via Snapchat he arranges to meet them in person at different locations throughout Broward County.
WPLG reported: According to an arrest affidavit, detectives found photos and a video on McBride’s cellphone of a 12-year-old and 14-year-old girl simultaneously performing oral sex on him in the backseat of his car.
Authorities said the video was taken sometime in June or July and the incident occurred in the parking lot of a church in Cooper City.
Both victims told detectives that McBride gave them $50 each as “hush money,” the affidavit stated.
According to the affidavit, McBride posted the video on Instagram, but it was taken down by the website after one of the victims filed a complaint.
Detectives said McBride confessed to the incident involving the two minors, as well as to giving them money.
McBride told detectives that he recorded the sexual acts on his cellphone with the intent to sell the videos to his acquaintances via Snapchat and Instagram, the affidavit stated.
McBride is known to drive a silver Toyota Corolla and is currently out on bail.
Investigators are asking anyone who may have come in contact with McBride to contact BSO SVU Detective Dimos Charoudis at 954-321-4243 or if you wish to remain anonymous, contact Broward Crime Stoppers at 954-493-TIPS (8477) or online at browardcrimestoppers.org.
