A man was arrested for several counts of child sexual assault material after officials executed a search in his Davis home in December, according to Yolo County Sheriff.
The Yolo County Sheriff’s Office received multiple cyber tips from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children after an account became associated with CSAM online.
Detectives linked the account to suspect Andrew James Hardardt, 59 and of Sacramento, who is a massage therapist.

West Sacramento Police and the Yolo County Sheriff’s Office served a search warrant, and his Davis residence was investigated. Over 600 images of Child Pornography were found in Hardardt’s possession and he was arrested without incident.
Police believe there are more victims linked to Hardardt’s massage therapy service who have yet to come forward and have since suspended his license.
Victims or anyone with information can send tips to the Yolo County Sheriff’s Office detective at (530) 668-5214.
