A former contestant on the “The Bachelorette” was arrested in Florida last month for possessing child pornography.
TMZ reported that a Google account belonging to Joshua Tylerbest, 27, was flagged for uploading a total of 50 illicit photos and videos. Police seized Tylerbest’s electronic devices — which allegedly contained 15 files showing child sexual abuse, including videos of adults abusing children younger than 10.
Tylerbest has pleaded not guilty to possession of materials showing a sexual performance by a child. People reported that he is currently free on a $5,000 bon.
An IT consultant, Tylerbest appeared on Katie Thurston’s season of “The Bachelorette.” He was eliminated in the fourth week.
Tylerbest allegedly deleted his Instagram account following his arrest. People reported that Tylerbest is due back in court in June.
