PINELLAS PARK — A New York man accused of raping three children and taking photographs of the sexual assaults with his cellphone was arrested Friday, hours after he was released by Pinellas Park police officers who said they could not get confirmation from the FBI of an existing warrant for his arrest in a timely manner.
At 12:04 a.m. Friday, an FBI agent called and confirmed that the warrant was legitimate, but verbal confirmation does not suffice, Geissenberger said. Pinellas Park police needed a teletype confirming the existence of the warrant.

After waiting for more than a half-hour, they released Sawyer at 12:40 a.m., Geissenberger said. Six minutes later they got the teletype, the sergeant said.
Geissenberger noted that the warrant charged Sawyer with producing child porn, and a national database listed the crime as a sex offense, to wit, promoting child sex.

“No one at any time told us he was charged with committing sexual acts against children,” he said. “It was ambiguous.”
