Fresno County authorities have reportedly arrested a husband and wife on child sex abuse charges.
According to the Fresno County Sheriff’s Office, 26-year-old Robinson Thao and 24-year-old Lily Chang, both of Fresno, were identified as suspects and arrested in connection with an investigation into alleged child sex abuse and distribution of child sexual abuse material (CSAM).
While Thao remains in custody, Chang posted bail and was released on December 14, the sheriff’s office said.
The Fresno County District Attorney’s Office has reportedly filed formal criminal charges against the couple.
Chang has been charged with felony possession of CSAM, while Thao is charged with several felonies: sodomy of a child under the age of 14, oral copulation with a child under the age of 14, lewd and lascivious acts with a child under the age of 14, arranging to meet a minor for sexual purposes, and possession of CSAM.
The sheriff’s office also noted that, while Chang worked at a local childcare center, they have yet to uncover evidence of her committing crimes against children.
The investigation is active and ongoing.
