An Oakland County lawyer was arraigned on multiple charges of using a computer to commit a crime and possession of child sexually abusive material after investigators said they found more than 25,000 graphic images on his personal computer.
More than two months ago, Paul Anthony Carthew's girlfriend discovered inappropriate, clothed images of her daughter's private parts on his personal laptop, authorities said.
The woman turned in the 38-year-old's computer to the Oakland County Sheriff's Office.
The investigation revealed the woman's daughter had not been sexually touched, photographed or in anyway sexually involved with Carthew.
The woman told the sheriff's department the pictures were taken during the couple's nine-month on-again-off-again relationship.
However, more than 25,000 saved images were discovered on Carthew's computer. The sheriff's department said many of them were "very sexually graphic in nature."
The images not only involved graphic images of adults having sex, but also involved animals, and some involved suspected children, the Sheriff's department said.
Carthew was arraigned at the 52-3 District Court in Rochester Hills last week and was granted a $50,000 personal bond. He will be back in court on April 1.
