FEDERAL COURT, Dec 31 – Kaiser Oakland nurse Shawn Jamison Prichard was arrested on December 9 in Antioch, California on child pornography charges. On December 22 the case went Federal, under 18 U.S.Code § 2252.
On December 31 a detention hearing was held by U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California Magistrate Judge Susan van Keulen. Inner City Press covered and live tweeted it, here and below.
The US Attorney's Office, which issued a press release about the case on December 24, on December 31 indicated that Prichard could be released if his partner Jeffrey Kwan put up $5,000 toward the $50,000 bond.
Prichard will have access to one smart phone or devise, monitored by Pre-Trial Services. He is prohibited from having contact with minors outside the presence of their parents or guardians, except for cashiers, waiters or "ticket-sellers." Inner City Press has more on the case on Patreon, here. Here is the live tweeted thread:
Magistrate Judge Susan van Keulen tells Kwan: Your failure to report any violations can lead to a charge of contempt against you. Will you do it?
Kwan: I will, to the best of my ability. Judge: You must promise this Court. Kwan: I do.
Judge: Mr. Prichard, I will release you on conditions. You must not harass or intimidate any officer of the court, or victim. You must report to the pre-trial services office in Oakland [The courthouse in San Jose is closed, after a COVID positive]
Judge: Mr. Prichard, you will have only one smart phone other than an Apple product that will be monitored. No other Internet. No contact with minors outside presence of guardians or parents, except waiters and cashiers. [Judge cited Fandango].
AUSA Jonathan Lee: If you get a burner phone or borrow a device from a friend for an hour, we would view that as serious and inform the court...
Judge: This will be an Oakland matter, so the next conference will be at 1 pm. We are adjourned.
The origin, we have found: on October 18, 2020 Facebook sent a cybertip (CyberTip # 81550816) to NCMEC related to the discovery of child pornography in Instagram account jediblr. Prior to submitting the report, a Facebook employee had previously reviewed the images and the discovery of the files in this incident had been made because the files matched hash values with known child pornography files. IP address 2601:644:4481:24e0:847c:2834:aad5:103 was used on or about October 17, 2020 by the user at approximately 1609 hours to distribute the child pornography via social media messaging
