A man who has been on Charlotte County’s “Most Wanted” list was arrested on a warrant for 10 counts of child pornography and one count of using a computer to lure or seduce a child.

Just before noon on Friday, June 7, members of the Charlotte County Sheriff’s Office Warrants Unit and members of District 4 Road Patrol arrived at a home in Punta Gorda, FL in reference to a tip that Christopher Andrew Post (01/03/1978) was inside the residence. There has been a felony warrant for the arrest of Christopher Post since August of 2023 for 10 counts of child pornography and one count of using a computer to seduce or lure a child. As deputies arrived on scene, they located and visually identified Post, placing him into handcuffs.

When asked to verify his identity, Post initially responded by stating “I’m not talking”. Throughout the encounter, Post continued to give the same response, until eventually uttering “You’re putting me in handcuffs, so you know who I am.”. Post was officially placed under arrest and escorted to a deputy’s vehicle to be transported to the Charlotte County Jail. Body-worn camera video of this encounter can be seen below.
