An Ocala teenager is facing nearly 30 felony charges after he allegedly purchased numerous videos depicting the sexual abuse of children and dogs.
Between October 2024 and April 2025, the Marion County Sheriff’s Office received two separate cyber tips from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children regarding files of child sexual abuse material that had been uploaded by an online user who was later identified as 18-year-old Nicholas Alexander Williams, according to the arrest report.
MCSO stated that the IP address associated with the cyber tips was traced back to a residence located on SW 128th Terrace Road in Ocala. The report stated that on Monday, April 28, 2025, a search warrant was obtained for the home, and it was executed two days later by the sheriff’s office.
While searching the home, MCSO deputies made contact with Williams. After being read his Miranda rights, Williams allegedly admitted to having an “X” account that was “just for porn.”
According to the report, Williams “admitted to viewing child sexual abuse material online and saving the material to his cellphone.” He allegedly further stated that he had purchased a “cloud storage account” containing media files that depicted the sexual abuse of animals, and these files were then downloaded and viewed on his electronic device.
During the post-Miranda interview, Williams allegedly claimed that there were “only a view video(s)” of child pornography saved on his cellphone. However, the report mentioned that at least 20 videos were found on Williams’ phone that depicted the sexual abuse of children, some as young as toddlers, as well as 8 videos that depicted people engaging in sexual acts with dogs.
Investigators conducted a secondary interview with Williams. He allegedly admitted to paying $100 for the child sexual abuse material and $20 for the material depicting animals involved in sexual activity with humans, according to the report.
Williams was arrested and transported to Marion County Jail, where he is currently being held on a $28,000 bond. He is being charged with 20 counts of possessing child pornography (enhanced due to quantity and content) and 8 counts of possessing material depicting sexual activities with animals.
A court date for Williams has not been scheduled yet, according to jail records.
