Escambia Man, 75, Arrested For Child Porn After FDLE, NCIS Investigation

July 27, 2024

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) has arrested an Escambia County man on child porn charges.

Lessly Howard Robison, 75, was charged with 20 felony counts of possession of child sex abuse material and one felony count of using a two-way communication device to facilitate a felony.

The investigation began in October of 2022 after agents discovered a peer-to-peer file sharing user downloading child sexual abuse material. Files were downloaded onboard the Pensacola Naval Air Station and off-base. Through the investigative partnership between FDLE and the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS) agents identified Robison as the user.

Agents served a search warrant at Robison’s residence and seized his laptop. A forensic preview of the laptop located numerous images depicting the sexual abuse of children, FDLE said.

The case is being investigated by the FDLE Pensacola Cyber Squad with assistance from NCIS.

Lessly was released from the Escambia County Jail on a quarter million bond.

    Woe to those who call evil good and good evil Isaiah 5:20 – so if other countries say its okay to view child sex abuse then it’s just ok?

    Well bewildered, its NOT child pornography. It’s CHILD SEX ABUSE MATERIAL. Saying it’s pornography is wrong. Those babies, toddlers and children didn’t deserve any of that. Those children are likely human trafficked, drugged and repeatedly sold and raped for sickos viewing pleasure. So, NO I don’t think this is a slap on the wrist punishment. Just because “others” think it should be doesn’t make it right. Have the day you deserve.

    This comment is NOT based on my personal opinion. Just wondering if our law makers ever considered how lax punishment is for possession of child pornography in Europe and other parts of the world. We are trying so hard to assimilate /- life in prison in the US – and maybe 1 year or zero punishment anywhere else. How can you ever align such a huge discrepancy in determining what is right and wrong
