DOUGLAS COUNTY, Mo. — A Seymour man was arrested July 14 in Greene County on a Douglas County warrant alleging child pornography offenses.
Anthony Setzer, 30, faces charges of possession of child pornography and promoting child pornography. He is being held without bond.
According to the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, Detective Nathan Long began investigating after relatives of a juvenile reportedly discovered videos involving Setzer and the child on July 8.

After being advised of his Miranda rights, Setzer reportedly admitted to the alleged acts during an interview with investigators, according to the sheriff’s office.
Douglas County Sheriff Chris Degase thanked the Greene County Sheriff’s Office for its assistance in locating and apprehending Setzer.
