LAKEPORT, Calif. – The Lake County Sheriff’s Office said it has arrested the owner of Main Street Bicycles in Lakeport as the result of an ongoing child pornography investigation.
Jeffery Scott Cramer, 58, of Lakeport, was arrested on Thursday morning, according to Lt. Corey Paulich.
At 11 a.m. Thursday Lake County Sheriff’s detectives served search warrants at Main Street Bicycles and at a residence on Seventh Street in Lakeport, Paulich said.
Paulich said the warrants were related to a child pornography investigation that has been ongoing for the past several months.
In January detectives received information that they were able to link to both locations as being used to upload pornographic images of children, Paulich said.
Through the investigation, Paulich said detectives believed the individual responsible was Cramer.
Paulich said the detectives were able to identify social media accounts associated with Cramer that had been used to uploaded child pornography on at least five occasions between August 2019 and February 2020.
Detectives seized digital devices from both locations on Thursday, Paulich said Detectives believe that additional evidence will be located on the devices once they are searched.
Cramer has been a coach for high school mountain biking teams at Clear Lake and Kelseyville high schools, as Lake County News has reported.
“At this time there is no information linking this investigation with the schools,” Paulich told Lake County News.
Cramer was booked at the Lake County Jail for the possession and sending of child pornography. On Thursday afternoon he remained in custody with bail set at $30,000, Paulich said.
The sheriff’s office is asking anyone who may have information related to this investigation to contact Det. Todd Dunia at 707-262-4232 or This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. .
