KISSIMMEE, Fla. — Virginia State Police are asking for the public's help finding any more information on a man accused of child sex crimes who tried to flee the country before getting arrested. 

Jason Robert Fragale, 38, is believed to have victims in Florida and ties to a cheerleading company called "The Crimson All-Star Cheerleading Club." The company is registered in both Florida and Virginia and investigators say Fragale kept an office in Reston.

On Jan. 20, the NOVA-DC Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force obtained 10 felony warrants in Loudoun County against Fragale. This includes five felony counts of possession of child pornography and five felony counts of reproduction of child pornography which stem from an investigation that was generated by a cyber tip submitted to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. Investigators reportedly tracked the IP address to Fragale's Leesburg home. Fragale was arrested in February at a Florida airport just before leaving the country. He was extradited to Virginia and is currently being held at the Loudoun County Adult Detention Center. 

Investigators are requesting anyone with information about this case to please contact Special Agent Georgie Torres at (407) 245-0888 or by emailing georgietorres@fdle.state.fl.us. Any potential Virginia victims should contact Special Agent Michael Bullock at questions@vsp.virginia.gov or 703-344-7290
