The discovery of a hidden camera in an underage girl’s bedroom led to the arrest of a Michigan man whose cellphone contained 294 “graphic images” of child pornography, authorities said.

Nickolas Lee, 30, was arrested in a recent Genesee Human Oppression Strike Team operation, or G.H.O.S.T., Genesee County Sheriff Christopher Swanson said in an April 12 press conference.
