Park City School Dist. IT administrator jailed for alleged possession of child sex abuse material

HEBER CITY, Utah, Sept. 12, 2026 (Gephardt Daily) — An IT systems administrator for the Park City School District has been arrested for 10 alleged counts of sexual exploitation of a minor, listed in court documents as a second-degree felony.

The arrest was part of an ongoing investigation into Garret Blaine Harmon, 29, who lives in Heber City after moving from a previous residence in Eagle Mountain.

The ongoing investigation began in June of 2025 when “law enforcement officers in the United Kingdom arrested and charged a UK citizen with offenses related to child exploitation,” Harmon’s arrest document says.

The UK citizen’s phone was examined, and identified the image provider as a Utah resident who had admitted abusing children, Harmon’s arrest document says.

investigators used facial recognition technology on a photograph provided by the Utah-based suspect, which led investigators to identify Garrett Blaine Harmon,” says the arrest document, filed by an ICE agent.
