Arraignment, detention hearing set for Joplin man on child pornography charges


A federal grand jury indicted Dakotah James "Cody" Gilmore, 31, Joplin, on child pornography charges today.

An arraignment and detention hearing for Gilmore, who had already been arrested and was being held in the Greene County Jail in Springfield, will be held 11:30 a.m. Thursday in U. S. District Court.







The indictment enables the government to bypass a preliminary hearing.

Gilmore was arrested following the execution of a search warrant Friday at a home in the 1500 block of South Murphy Lane. A Southwest Missouri Cyber Crimes Task Force investigation had traced child pornography, much of it involving children who appeared to be age five or younger to accounts belonging to Gilmore.
