30-year-old Georgia TikTok influencer Kylie Strickland is behind bars after public outcry over a video on the app in which she allegedly flashed two underage children.
Earlier this week, Troup County Sheriff's Office said it was looking into a TikTok video being circulated "which appeared to show an adult female expose her breast to two young boys in a swimming pool. Other people can also be heard in the background and seen in the video."
After an investigation, they determined the video was filmed in nearby Pike County and relayed all their information to police there.

"Strickland was reported to have been at a residence in Pike County when she purposefully exposed her breasts in a provocative manner to two minor children while streaming live on social media," reads a statement from Pike PD. "Investigators were able to work in conjunction with Troup County Sheriff's Office personnel after this case had originally been reported to that agency. Upon learning that the incident had occurred in Pike County the investigation was transferred to the appropriate jurisdiction."
"Strickland was arrested on a warrant obtained by Pike County investigators for computer or electronic pornography and child exploitation, which is a felony in Georgia," the statement adds. "After conferring with the district attorney's office this was determined to be the appropriate criminal charge for prosecution against Strickland."
Authorities added that Strickland was "currently incarcerated and awaiting a bond hearing."
