A Central Florida school employee was arrested on disturbing child exploitation and bestiality charges.
The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office arrested the 25-year-old man following an extensive investigation into child sexual abuse material and bestiality. Detectives launched the investigation after receiving a cyber tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children in August 2025.
The tip traced the upload of child sexual abuse videos to an online account later linked to 25-year-old Tyree McKinley Fields.
Investigators obtained search warrants for the suspect’s digital accounts and residence, uncovering hundreds of graphic files involving the sexual abuse of infants and young children, as well as videos depicting sexual acts with animals.
At the time of the crimes, Fields was employed as a campus safety monitor at Spoto High School in Riverview near Tampa. He was arrested at his residence without further incident.
Tyree Fields faces numerous felony charges, including: Possession of Child Pornography (10 or More Images) (x100), Film, Distribute, Or Possess Image or Video of Sexual Activity with an Animal (x100), In State Transmission of Child Pornography (x2), Unlawful Use of a Two-Way Communication Device (x3), Obstruction of Service or Execution of a Search Warrant, and Resist without Violence.
“There are few crimes more horrifying than those that exploit the innocent,” said Hillsborough County Sheriff Chad Chronister. “This individual’s actions are beyond comprehension — the abuse of children and animals is pure evil. Thanks to the dedication of our detectives this man is behind bars. We will never tolerate those who target the most vulnerable, and we will continue to pursue them relentlessly.”
Fields was transported to the Falkenburg Road Jail. The investigation is ongoing, according to local law enforcement.
