Former Disney Actor Matt Prokop Arrested on Child Imagery Charge

Former Disney actor Matt Prokop was arrested on Christmas Eve in Victoria County, Texas, facing multiple misdemeanor charges and a second-degree felony count of possession of illegal child imagery.

Prokop, 35, was taken into custody at his home on December 24 and is being held at the Victoria County Sheriff's Office Jail, according to jail officials. Court records show he faces four misdemeanor charges: one count of violating a bond or protective order, one count of evading arrest or detention, and two counts of resisting arrest, search, or transportation. The felony charge stems from a search warrant executed at his residence, where authorities allegedly discovered prohibited material. It remains unclear when Prokop will make his initial court appearance.

The arrest follows Prokop's earlier detention earlier in 2024 on charges of resisting arrest and aggravated assault of a family member. Officials stated that the recent incident began when Prokop violated conditions of his bond from those prior charges, prompting authorities to pursue him. During the encounter, he allegedly attempted to evade officers and resisted efforts to take him into custody.
