An investigation into Stephen Blumberg, of Arrington, began after a referral from the Southern Virginia Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force (SOVA ICAC) of a person allegedly sending nude images to a juvenile in another state, as we previously reported.

A search warrant was executed back in March. Authorities said they found evidence at the scene and arrested Blumberg.

He now faces the following charges, according to court records:

  • Possession of firearms and ammo by a convicted felon
  • Two counts of aggravated sexual battery (victim under the age of 13)
  • Two counts of object sexual penetration; penalty

Blumberg is set to go on trial on August 28 at 9 a.m. in the Nelson Co. Circuit Court, court documents show.
