- Possessing between 10 and 50 depictions of child pornography
According to an arrest warrant, Kerkez allegedly uploaded 37 depictions of child sex abuse material to a social media platform in November 2024.
One of those files included a 19-second video of a child who was sexually abused, the affidavit states.
In November 2025, an officer with the Texas Attorney General’s Office obtained search warrants for three accounts believed to be connected to Kerkez on the same social media platform.
In the affidavit, the investigator “observed” nearly 46 items that met the criteria of “child pornography” associated with one of Kerkez’s accounts.
According to the warrant, Kerkez allegedly talked about his “fantasy” of performing sex acts with girls as young as 7 years old with another user.
Investigators said he sent photos of himself to at least one other user, which depicted some of his “large and identifiable tattoos.”
Bexar County court records also show Kerkez is “awaiting trial” regarding an online solicitation of a minor charge, which is considered a third-degree felony.
In that report, Kerkez is accused of discussing sex acts and sharing at least one photo with an undercover investigator who identified themselves as a 15-year-old girl.
In March, investigators with the AG’s office visited Kerkez’s home on the Northeast Side. When they arrived at the home, a woman at the home told authorities that Kerkez worked as a construction worker remodeling a bathroom at a local school.
As of Thursday evening, Kerkez remains in custody at the Bexar County Adult Detention Center.
