HOLIDAY, Fla. — A man was arrested for possessing child sexual abuse materials in Holiday, according to officials.

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) arrested Mario Pizza, 18, after executing a search warrant at his Pasco County home on April 11.

Officials said the investigation, which began in October 2023, revealed that Pizza had downloaded over 100 "notable" files, which contained images and videos depicting sexual abuse of children.

Pizza was charged with 15 counts of possession of child sexual abuse materials and one count of promoting the sexual performance of a child. He was booked into the Pasco County Jail on a $160,000 bond.

“You know, it might just be time we take a look if HOAs are really even necessary.
Maybe we should just do away with homeowner associations as a whole.”

South Florida lawmaker Rep. Juan Carlos Porras (R-Miami) says it may be time to do away with homeowners associations altogether, as more Floridians speak out about rising fees, costly lawsuits, and even arrests tied to HOA disputes. He said this week that he is considering filing legislation in the next session that would abolish HOAs statewide.
