2. Murray firefighter accused of several felony child sex crimes
MURRAY, Utah (KUTV) — A firefighter with the Murray City Fire Department was arrested on felony child sex crimes.
Tyson David Green, 47, was arrested on two second-degree felony counts of aggravated sexual exploitation of a minor.
An officer with the Utah Division of Investigations was acting undercover in a chat room in an effort to identify a child predator from July 31 to Aug. 27, 2025.
A member of the FBI Child Exploitation and Human Trafficking Task Force posed as a father with access to a nine-year-old daughter.
A man with the username "curLDSguy" reportedly contacted the undercover officer and started a conversation about his sexual interest in minors.
When the officer asked if he was "active" with his children, meaning actively abusing them, he replied, "No, I wish."
"The conversation then transitioned to an encrypted messaging application where the conversation escalated further," the affidavit states.
In some of the conversations, the user said he was born in Layton, grew up in Fruit Heights, and lived in West Layton — which later helped investigators identify him as Green.
Green allegedly sent multiple suggestive photos of young girls, mentioned his "favorite incestuous video," and referred to the undercover officer's non-existent daughter.
A subpoena returned from T-Mobile confirmed Green was the user.
He was arrested on Wednesday at the Murray City Fire Department.

3. Murray firefighter arrested in undercover exploitation sting now faces 15 felony charges
MURRAY — A firefighter arrested and accused of trying to arrange a meeting with a young girl to sexually assault her was also distributing child sex abuse material from his laptop, according to prosecutors.
Tyson David Green, 47, of Layton, was booked into the Salt Lake County Jail on Wednesday and charged Friday in 3rd District Court with 15 counts of aggravated sexual exploitation of a minor, a first-degree felony.
Between July 31 and Wednesday, an undercover agent with the FBI Child Exploitation and Human Trafficking Task Force posed online as a father offering his 9-year-old daughter. He was contacted by Green and the two "had a conversation regarding sexual interest in minors," according to a police booking affidavit.
"When the (undercover agent) asked if he was 'active' with his kids, meaning actively abusing them, he replied with, 'No, I wish,'" the affidavit alleges.
The two continued messaging on an encrypted messaging application. Green said "he had been chatting with 'pdos' (pedos) and that they had sent him a pic and he was hooked," according to the affidavit.
During their messaging, Green also sent images of child sex abuse material to the undercover agent, the affidavit says.
Green was arrested Wednesday "at a fire station in Murray," police noted in the arrest report. "Green is a firefighter/paramedic for Murray Fire Department, and therefore occupies a position of trust and responsibility in the community. He also has expressed a sexual interest in minor females between the ages of 7 and 17."
After arresting him, investigators "obtained a second warrant to seize electronic devices belonging to Green at the Murray fire station where Green was working at the time of his arrest," according to charging documents filed Friday. A MacBook computer was searched and "law enforcement observed that Green has been actively distributing child sex abuse material to many other internet users."
Green was placed on administrative leave Wednesday pending the outcome of an internal investigation, and further action could be taken once that is completed, according to a spokeswoman for the city of Murray.
