Muskogee Police Department held a news conference Tuesday to discuss the child pornography case involving a Muskogee firefighter.
Muskogee police spokesperson Lincoln Anderson announced additional charges have been brought against Zackery Perry and Melissa Skelton, while admitting the investigation is ongoing and only about 25 percent complete.
"We're concerned that there's more victims out there that we're not yet aware of. So if anyone has a child that could've come into contact with Mr. Perry, we'd like you to contact the police department," Anderson said.
Perry was arrested in January and Skelton was arrested on Feb. 3. During the investigation, officials uncovered evidence suggesting the exchange of child pornography for money.
Police believe that more than 1,000 photos were taken of young children over the past year.
Additional charges of Human Trafficking, Child Sexual Abuse, and Conspiracy to Commit Child Sexual Abuse have been brought against Perry.
