Two Lauderdale County men are facing charges for allegedly downloading child pornography.
In separate cases, Robert Michael Lundstrom, II, 30, of Meridian, was arrested Monday and Jacob Brent Fitzgerald, 24, of Collinsville, was arrested Tuesday after investigations into their suspicious online activity, according to a press release from the attorney general’s office.
A $5,000 bond was set for both men, who are being held at the Lauderdale County Detention Facility.
The Mississippi Bureau of Investigation and the Lauderdale County Sheriff’s Office assisted the AG’s Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force in the arrest and investigation of Lundstom, who is awaiting his initial appearance.
If convicted, the two men each face up to 40 years in prison and $500,000 in fines.
The cases were investigated by the AG’s Cybercrime Unit and prosecuted by Special Assistant Attorney General Brandon Ogburn.
