Man arrested on human trafficking, child porn offenses
BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KGET) — A 26-year-old man who was arrested on suspicion of human trafficking and sex acts with a minor was released from jail only to be arrested the next day on alleged possession of child pornography, police said.
Adrian Gallardo is currently being held without bail and is due in court next week, according to inmate booking records.

Gallardo posted bond and was released on Wednesday.
On Thursday, he was arrested a second time after being found in possession of child pornography, police said.
