Douglas County Man Arrested After Sharing Child Porn on Social Media

DOUGLAS COUNTY, GA – A Douglas County man has been arrested on multiple charges of Sexual Exploitation of Children following an investigation that began with cyber tips from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC).

On June 24, 2025, the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office received two tips from NCMEC regarding suspected child pornography shared on the social media app “Kik.” The tips identified a total of 20 videos and two images of Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM) uploaded from an IP address linked to a residence in Douglas County.

A search warrant was executed at the residence, where deputies seized multiple electronic devices. A forensic download of one of the devices confirmed it contained the same videos and images detailed in the cyber tips.

Maverick Austin Beaudreau was subsequently charged and arrested for 14 counts of Sexual Exploitation of Children.
