It looks like another man working in the animation industry has been jailed for serious offenses. USA Today reports (via Breitbart):

A Cartoon Network series creator has been arrested on child pornography charges.

Kyle Carrozza, an animator who created the television series "Mighty Magiswords" and worked on multiple Cartoon Network, Disney, PBS Kids and Nickelodeon shows, was arrested in Burbank, California, on June 20 on two child pornography possession charges, according to Burbank Police Department arrest records.

[...] After a review of Carrozza's case, the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office filed one count of possession of over 600 images of child pornography, the department said.

[...] Carrozza, 45, has worked as a storyboard artist and animator on several cartoons, including "Adventure Time," the 2020 "Animaniacs" reboot, "Doc McStuffins" (and its miniseries spinoff "The Doc Files"), "Fish Hooks," "Fanboy & Chum Chum," "Danger Rangers" and "Teen Titans Go!"

He also worked as an animator on "The Spongebob Movie: Sponge Out of Water."

Well he sure has tarnished plenty of children's cartoons with his evil deeds. How many more of these perverts will turn up in the animation and comics medium? I'd feared several years ago crimes like these would turn up increasingly, and this scandal is really dealing a crippling blow to the industries they may never recover from. Let's hope Carrozza gets a long prison sentence for what he's done.
