    SACRAMENTO (CBS13) -- Federal investigators have arrested a youth leader at a local ward of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints after allegedly finding a stash of child pornography on his computer.

    Dustin Cassady, 29, was targeted in an FBI sting operation that led investigators to his Carmichael home late last week.

    In the legal complaint, authorities accused Cassady of possessing numerous pictures on his hard drive of children engaged in sexual acts, and other pictures of children from his own church.

    FBI agents said the suspect took pictures of the shirtless children at the church without their knowledge, and would also befriend children at the church by buying them gifts. Cassady's behavior is consistent with someone who preys on children, investigators said.

    No local church representatives were available for comment.
