Sex Offender Faces New Charges | Kansas City News

A registered sex offender, Michael Shimon, 43, is facing fresh charges five years after his release from prison—this time for possessing and receiving child pornography. His parole officer alerted authorities in August after an acquaintance spotted disturbing material on a tablet left at his Kansas City home. Shimon, previously convicted for promoting and possessing child porn that led to a 12-year sentence, was released on parole in 2021. Investigators also traced a Dropbox video linked to him, uncovering thousands of images on his devices after a tip was filed with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children in April. No court dates are set yet as the investigation continues. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
