A St. Augustine man is behind bars after authorities found several images and videos of child pornography on his social media accounts, according to the St. Johns County Sheriff's Office.

Deputies said they were tipped off that Dennis Christopher Musser, 24, had some "concerning materials" on his social media accounts, which led to a two-month-long investigation.
