Child sex abuse, bestiality videos found in man’s phone while on a cruise ship: police
Another “routine cabin search” on a cruise ship in Port Miami led to the jailing of a man who possessed several videos of child sex abuse and bestiality in his phone, police said.
Around 11 a.m. Monday, a U.S. Customs and Border Protection officer conducted a check of Iwayan Brahmantara’s room aboard a cruise ship when they made the illicit discovery, an arrest report read. It’s not clear which cruise line he was on at the time of the arrest.
In Brahmantara’s phone, the officer found a video of a 5-year-old girl being raped and another showing a 12 to 13-year-old girl being sexually abused, according to the report. A third video included a woman having sex with a horse.
Miami-Dade police were called and Brahmantara was charged with three counts of possession of sexual performance by a child and one count of sexual activities involving animals. As of Tuesday, the 32-year-old remains in the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center.
Customs and Border Patrol “routine cabin searches” have spurred a slew of arrests in recent months. Three cruise workers were found with child sexual abuse materials on their devices during a search, one of whom had his case dropped.
