This Wednesday, the San Mateo County Sheriff's Office reported the arrest of three subjects in Redwood City on charges of possession of child pornography, criminal conspiracy and destruction of evidence.
In October 2020, the San Mateo County Sheriff's Office Bureau of Investigation received tips from the Silicon Valley Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force (SVICAC) regarding the possession of child pornography.
After a lengthy investigation, detectives arrested Mois Vieyra Gallegos for possession of numerous photographs of child pornography.
During the course of this investigation, detectives learned that Mois' brother and girlfriend, Ram Vieyra Gallegos and Alexia L ez Reyes, attempted to conceal or destroy evidence essential to the case.
Both men were subsequently arrested for criminal conspiracy and concealing evidence. All three suspects were booked into the Maguire Correctional Facility.
In light of the events, the Sheriff's Office is asking citizens with information about the suspect to contact Detective Carryn Barker at 650-363-4050 or send an email to cbarker@smcgov.org.
