Professional bowler Brandon Novak was arrested mid-game during the U.S. Open tournament early in February on multiple child pornography charges. The arrest, which occurred mid-tournament, followed after Novak faced 15 charges related to possessing and potentially distributing child pornography. Reports indicate that Novak admitted to purchasing illegal content on Snapchat and attempting to conceal his activities. This incident has sparked considerable attention, given its occurrence in the midst of a major sporting event.
