Florida Gators quarterback Jalen Kitna was arrested Wednesday on multiple felony complaints involving child pornography. He was booked into the Alachua County Jail at 3:20 p.m. and has been suspended indefinitely from the football team.
The Gainesville Police Department received a cyber tip about a user of the Discord messaging system sharing an image of “child sexual abuse material,” the department said in a press release. The investigation led police to Kitna’s Gainesville residence.
Kitna, 19, told police he shared them but thought they were legal because he found them online. He then said he should not have shared them, according to Gainesville police. An initial search of his electronic devices found three more images.
