HALL COUNTY, Ga. – A Flowery Branch man has been arrested on 400 counts of sexual exploitation of a minor after a yearlong investigation by the Hall County Sheriff’s Office.

Stanley Bruce Fyfe IV, 33, was taken into custody Wednesday afternoon at his home on Paradise Point and remains in the Hall County Jail without bond.

According to investigators, the case began in June 2024 after the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children forwarded a cyber tip linked to Fyfe’s online activity. Over the following months, the sheriff’s office received six additional tips, all connected to the same location.

In February, investigators executed a search warrant at Fyfe’s residence while he was away, and days later, seized his cellphone when he returned home.

Forensic analysis of the device, completed this month, uncovered hundreds of images of child sexual abuse material, authorities said.

Detectives then obtained a felony arrest warrant charging Fyfe with 400 counts of sexual exploitation of a minor.

The investigation remains ongoing, and the sheriff’s office said additional charges may be filed.
