According to officials, more than 150 images or children were found on Bernal’s laptop and cell phone.

When questioned, police said Bernal told them he’s interested in “babies to 14-year-olds” and has been viewing it since he was 12 to 13-years-old.

Officials also allege that Bernal shared his Turtle Creek apartment with a 19-year-old Arizona woman, who he met online and engaged in sex acts with when she was 13-years-old.

Parents living near Bernal told Channel 11 that they’re happy he’s locked up.

"It's dangerous when you don't know what your neighbors are doing it's sad, it's sad," said Deneen Cline, neighbor.
