You may recall this past September, Special Agents from the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation arrested a Murfreesboro man in connection to an ongoing child pornography investigation. WGNS has since learned that man is due in court to file a plea on January 28, 2016.

In June, TBI Agents received an investigative lead from the Knoxville Police Department. During the course of the investigation, Agents executed a search warrant at the Murfreesboro home of Mark Brantley Neal and developed information that Neal used a peer-to-peer network to download files containing child pornography and later attempted to dispose of relevant items of evidence.

In September, agents arrested the 55-year-old at his Longview Drive home and charged him with one count of Aggravated Sexual Exploitation of a Minor and one count of Tampering with Evidence. Neal is currently free on bond.
