A Chattanooga man who is on the sex offender registry was accused of asking an AT&T employee for help transferring media, which included child pornography, from his cellphone to another device, an affidavit of complaint said.
Randall Fraley, 73, is facing a sexual exploitation of a minor charge for possessing child pornography.
He is listed as a Tennessee sex offender in connection with a 1994 sexual battery charge, which is described as unlawful sexual contact with a victim, according to the registry.
The previous conviction involved hands-on offenses with children, the affidavit said.
Fraley allegedly brought his phone into a Hixson AT&T location Monday to ask an employee for help copying media over to another storage device.
