WASHINGTON (AP) The son of former CIA director John Brennan was arrested Friday on federal charges related to child sexual abuse images, authorities said.
The case against Kyle Owen Brennan, filed in federal court in Virginia, stems from an investigation by local authorities that was turned over to the FBI earlier this year, according to court documents.
According to evidence presented in court, local authorities began an investigation after the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children received information in 2024 about alleged child sexual abuse material uploaded to his Adobe account.
That year, his cell phone was seized as part of a local investigation, according to court documents.
An FBI background check of the phone revealed images of child sexual exploitation, the affidavit said.
