Columbia Police and New Jersey authorities continue their investigation into a Columbia man who was arrested Friday morning on child pornography charges.
Boone County prosecutors have charged 30-year-old Steven Keith Greathouse with four felonies, including two counts of sexual exploitation of a minor child. A graphic court filing from Boone County assistant prosecutor Elizabeth Weaver alleges that Greathouse “communicated with and solicited nude photos from multiple minor children” and did so while posing as a 14-year-old boy. Prosecutor Weaver’s motion says the known victims are between the ages of 10 and 13 and live in New Jersey.
Boone County prosecutors describe Greathouse as a flight risk.
CPD describes the investigation as ongoing. Anyone with information about Steven Keith Greathouse is encouraged to call Columbia Police or Columbia Crimestoppers at (573) 875-TIPS. You can call that number anonymously.
