A 42-year-old Forsyth County man was arrested Wednesday after authorities reportedly found images of child porn on his computer.

According to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, William Guy Hella has been charged with five counts of possession of child pornography and taken to the Forsyth County Detention Center, where he awaits a bond hearing.

The discovery was made during a search of Hella’s Lakewood Road home by the GBI’s Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force and the Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office.

According to the GBI, the search warrant was obtained as a result of an investigation by the Liberty County Sheriff’s Office into peer-to-peer sharing of child porn images from an IP address, which the GBI determined was registered to Hella.
