A search warrant sought in an investigation into an 18-year-old Leesburg man, who is already facing child molestation charges, has revealed graphic images and videos of underage girls on an online file sharing website, according to court records. Nicholas Reed Colquitt, 18, of 105 Ems T26B Lane, Leesburg, was arrested Thursday on 10 felony counts of possessing child pornography. Police say they uncovered the images as part of an investigation into charges alleging Colquitt had sex with two underage girls. Colquitt was charged in October with one felony count of sexual misconduct with a minor. A few days later, another underage girl accused Colquitt of sexually assaulting her. As a result, Colquitt was charged with four additional counts of child molestation. Colquitt faces a total of 15 felony sex-related charges. During the arrest, detectives confiscated three iPhones from Colquitt. Authorities also found several links, linking to Dropbox, a file hosting site. Police believe Colquitt used two different email addresses to access the folders. The link led to a Dropbox webpage named “Kiddy Porn Girlies” which contained 12 folders that included images of underage girls. Police also believe Colquitt had accessed 33 videos and 149 images online, some depicting sexual assault and other acts, court records stated. Colquitt is being held in the Kosciusko?County Jail on $250,250 bond.
