WARE COUNTY, Ga. — A Ware County man was arrested for sexual exploitation of children, according to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation.

In November 2024, the GBI’s Child Exploitation and Computer Crimes Unit began looking into 26-year-old Caleb Austin Walker’s online activity.

The investigation began after the CEACC received a cyber tipline report from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) regarding the possible online possession and distribution of child sexual abuse material.

This led to a search of Walker’s home and he was later arrested after a joint investigation between the Ware County Sheriff’s Office and the GBI regional office in Douglas.
