Ormond Beach resident Richard Davenport is facing 50 counts of possession of child pornography, and the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office reports he remains in custody on a $1.25 million bond.

Davenport, 67, turned himself in last week following an investigation that began after VSO received a tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children last August concerning the possession and distribution of child pornography. According to a VSO report, deputies executed a search warrant at his home on Dec. 5, 2024, where they seized devices containing pornographic images of children ranging in age from an infant to about 12 years old. 

He was booked on Jan. 16.
