When 23-year-old Johnathan Jhovanni Hernandez was arrested on Dec. 29 for two counts of child porn, deputies anticipated additional charges, but what they found shocked them to the core.
“At that time, we told you the investigation was just getting started, and there would likely be more charges,” the Highlands County Sheriff’s Office posted on Facebook. “What we should have said was there would likely be A LOT more charges — like more than anyone in our county … ever.”
Investigators say that just looking through one of the 15 electronic devices the Special Victims Unit seized from Hernandez when he was arrested in December resulted in Hernandez being arrested again on Wednesday.

This time on an additional 1,182 counts of possession of child pornography as well as four counts of possession of bestiality images.
Those last four charges are under a new law that just went into effect on Oct. 1 of last year.
Hernandez is being held on a bond of just over $2.4 million and has enough charges to possibly land him life in prison.
