Investigators with the attorney general’s office have been looking into a Gibsonia man for months and on Thursday, only Channel 11 was there as they searched his home.

Court paperwork says investigators found public files of child porn available for download and traced it back to William Blair’s IP address.

Exclusive video shows several agents with the attorney general’s office raiding the Parkview Drive home for hours, carrying out bags and boxes.

We have blurred the video to protect the identity of undercover agents.

Investigators eventually found an external hard drive with a folder on it labeled “peds” with more than 200 files of child porn inside.

Investigators believe Blair watched at least 50 of them.

When questioned about it, Blair said he downloaded the child porn by accident, then changed his story and said he was curious about it and wanted to investigate it himself but had no interest in it.

Channel 11 spoke to one of Blair’s neighbors, who says she crossed paths with Blair as a child.

“I was 2 years old at the time and I’ve always lived here and this guy and his wife, we’d go trick or treating. And I remember we shot a rocket as kids and it landed on his roof, he was nice, he got it out for us,” said Anya. “You’d never suspect but at the same time, you don’t know your neighbors. You don’t know what everyone is up to.”

Blair now faces 52 charges, most of them for sexual abuse of children, distributing child porn and possessing child porn.
