Valrico Man Arrested On Child Pornography Charges

The Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office has arrested a Valrico man for 100 counts of child pornography.

On August 13, 2024, at approximately 6 a.m., detectives with HCSO's Internet Predator Unit served a search warrant at a residence in the 500 block of Falkirk Avenue in Valrico regarding information that an individual at this address was in possession of child pornography.

After a thorough investigation, the suspect, Dale Uvino, 43, was arrested and charged with the following:

  • Possession of Child Pornography 10 or More Images and Content of Images x 100

"We condemn the vile and despicable actions of this individual. This behavior is reprehensible and has no place in our community," said Sheriff Chad Chronister. "However, I am profoundly grateful for the dedicated efforts of our Internet Predator Unit detectives, whose tireless work and commitment to justice have played a crucial role in the arrest of this offender."

This is an ongoing investigation; any further information will come from the Public Affairs Office.
