Disney World Employee Charged with 32 Counts of Child Porn Possession: Sheriff

An employee at Walt Disney World in Florida has been charged with horrific sex crimes.

Michael David Foster, an overnight mechanic at Disney World in Orlando, became the subject of an investigation this month after law enforcement “received information regarding the possible possession of child pornography,” the Hernando County Sheriff’s Office said in a Facebook post.

“Upon receiving the initial information, detectives seized a flash drive and a few SD cards that had been located in a book bag belonging to Foster,” the post said.

“The flash drive contained 32 images of child pornography.”

The 47-year-old admitted to being the owner of the bag as well as downloading the pornographic images.

Foster, who previously worked as a corrections officer in Citrus County, was charged with 32 counts of possession of child pornography on Dec. 20. His bond was set at $320,000.

“Additional charges are possible, pending digital forensic analysis of all devices seized from Foster’s residence,” the Hernando County Sheriff’s Office added.

Foster is merely the latest in a string of Disney employees accused of sex crimes.

In June, Disney World cast member Paul Viel was among eight individuals arrested for allegedly possessing and distributing child pornography.

“These videos and photographs are some of the most horrific my detectives have ever seen — images of children being forced to expose their genitalia and raped,” Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said at the time.

In September 2022, Disney World IT support specialist Kevin Sanders was arrested as part of an undercover operation targeting 13 men believed to be child sex predators, according to a Polk County Sheriff’s Office news release.

Sanders had had sexually explicit online conversations with an undercover detective posing as a 13-year-old girl. He was charged with one count of transmitting harmful material to a minor and one count of using a computer to solicit a child for sex.


A Note from Our Deputy Managing Editor:

 

I walked into the office one morning and noticed something strange. Half of The Western Journal’s readership was missing.

 

It had finally happened. Facebook had flipped THE switch.

 

Maybe it was because we wrote about ivermectin. Or election integrity. Or the Jan. 6 detainees. Or ballot mules.

 

Whatever the reason, I immediately knew what to do. We had to turn to you because, frankly, we know you are the only ones we can trust.

 

Can you help? Every donation to The Western Journal goes directly to funding our team of story researchers, writers and editors who doggedly pursue the truth and expose the corrupt elites.

 

Can I count on you for a small donation? We operate on a shoestring compared to other news media companies, so I can personally promise that not a penny of your donation will be wasted.

 

If you would rather become a WJ member outright, you can do that today as well.

 

We will use every single cent to fight against the lies and corruption in high places. And as long as we have your help, we will never give up.

 

Sincerely,

Josh Manning

Deputy Managing Editor
