More charges for former East Texas paramedic

TYLER — Smith County Investigators uncovered additional evidence connecting Matthew Clearman to more images of child pornography. On Monday, an arrest warrant affidavit was prepared for an additional charge of Possession or Promotion of Child Pornography for the second degree felony. Investigators are asking for anyone who may have had children around Clearman to notify the Smith County Sheriff’s Office at (903) 566-6600 and ask for Detective Audrey Lugo. Authorities are also reminding parents to monitor carefully their children’s social media activity. The East Texas paramedic was arrested last week on charges of child pornography.
