Prosecutors charged Kaden Peper, 22, with a single felony count of controlling child pornography in Fremont. Peper's ex-girlfriend found a file labeled "pedophile handbook" on his computer after he left the device in her car and alerted her. She delivered the computer to Fremont police, who set up a pretext call in which Peper allegedly admitted attraction to teenagers and seeking a relationship because his ex appeared petite and young. Investigators assert the computer also contained videos of prepubescent children being sexually abused. Peper pleaded not guilty and was released with a court order prohibiting possession or viewing of child pornography.
Kaden Peper, 22, now faces a single felony charge of controlling child pornography. It all started when Peper allegedly left his computer in his ex-girlfriend's car then called to inform her of the mistake, authorities said. The woman discovered a file labeled pedophile handbook, described by police as a multi-page document describing child sexual abuse and how to be a pedophile. There were two other folders labeled pics, and vids but she wisely didn't open those, police say.
Investigators in turn arranged a pretext call between her and Peper, in which he allegedly stated he was attracted to teenagers nottoddlers, and that he even sought a relationship with his ex because she was petite and looked young, an investigator wrote in court filings. Police allege, though, that Peper's computer contained videos depicting prepubescent children being sexually abused. Peper pleaded not guilty at a Thursday morning court appearance.
