POSTED: 6:35 am EDT June 30, 2009

A southern Indiana man was arrested Monday on several child sex-related charges after he offered teen and pre-teen boys money and/or cigarettes to pose nude and semi-nude for pictures, police said.

Indiana State Police Sgt. Jerry Goodin said officers began investigating Joseph O. Sutherland, 20, of Lanesville in Harrison County, on June 17.

Police obtained a search warrant and examined Sutherland's computers, hard drives and cameras.

Investigators said they found several victims that they didn't previously know about during the investigation.

Sutherland was arrested Monday on charges of child molesting, sexual misconduct with a minor and attempted child exploitation.

Police said they think there could be several additional victims in the case and asked anyone with information to call 800-872-6743.
