Granbury child shot and killed by another child, officials say
Investigators in Hood County, southwest of Fort Worth, are trying to figure out what led to a child being shot and killed by another child this week.
In December of that year an undercover officer talked to Briggs in an online chat room dedicated to the sexual abuse of children.
Briggs then sent the officer a video of child pornography involving a very young female.
The IP address traced back to Briggs' home in The Colony.
Police searched his home and found hundreds of images of child pornography on Briggs' cell phone.
The case was a part of a nationwide initiative called Project Safe Childhood to combat child exploitation.
