The Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff’s Office (TPSO) Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force, in its latest operation, has arrested 27 year-old Herman Landry IV who has been booked on 28 counts of Pornography Involving Juveniles as well as being a Fugitive from Jasper County, South Carolina, where he has three outstanding warrants for the same type of crimes.
Last month, the TPSO ICAC Unit started investigating the uploading of pornography involving juveniles onto a social media platform. Detectives determined Landry, who recently moved to Ponchatoula, was behind the uploads and was operating under several profiles on the same platform. During the investigation, it was learned that South Carolina's Jasper County Sheriff’s Office was also looking into one of the other profiles and, since Landry now resides in Tangipahoa Parish, all cases were forwarded to our ICAC team.
Landry was taken into custody May 1, 2025 and booked into the Tangipahoa Parish Jail. He will eventually be extradited to South Carolina to face those charges as well.
***All persons are innocent until proven guilty***
This activity is part of TPSO’s partnership with Attorney General Liz Murrill’s Office and their ICAC Task Force which includes a collaboration with numerous local law enforcement agencies.
