SEX OFFENDER ARRESTED AFTER PORN FOUND, COPS SAY

Shannon Colwell, a 27 year old Massapequa man who failed to register as a sex offender, was arrested after a surprise visit by his probation officer to his home turned up child porn on his computer.  Colwell, of 38 N. Baldwin Place, was arrested Thursday and charged with possession of sexual performance by a child.  His bail was set at $20,000 bond or $10,000 cash and he is being held at the Nassau County jail in East Meadow.  He had been on probation after he was charged in March for failing to register as a medium-risk sex offender.
