Whittier, CA: The daylong drama on Kimbark Avenue here is over.
But, the nightmare of the details of what caused this long day standoff is just beginning.
A man suspected of producing child pornography was found dead in his home tonight by the FBI SWAT team. They surrounded the residence earlier this morning.
The FBI is not going to release the name of the man who who died at the scene, and I totally respect and applaud them for this decision.
The man died, identified in local media as of a self-inflicted bullet wound, FBI spokeswoman Laura Eimiller told the LA Times tonight. Law enforcement authorities used a robot with a surveillance camera operated by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department to enter the home and look for the suspect.
Earlier in the day, members of a multi-agency task force attempted to serve a search warrant on the house in the 10400 block of Kimbark Avenue. When authorities tried to enter the house, the man fled inside and task force members heard a gunshot, the FBI said.
A second man, Damian Dmytrykovfky of Whittier, was arrested when the task force arrived at the house, and will probably be charged with making a false statement, the FBI said.
Eimiller said the investigation was ongoing and that authorities had not determined the extent of the alleged pornography or whether any children were victimized.

he may have been known by many respected people...but they obviously didn't know the truth...as a personal victim of this man....i ask that you not allow your opinions of him (based on his "kindness") to blind you to the horrific reality of his actions and how they affected innocent children. i am sorry, however, for the loss of a fellow human in such a manner.
I agree with you 100% Thanks for your note. Randy!
I, too, knew this man. He did much for my friends and I. Now I have mixed emotions due to this newly released truth. It hurts, and it makes me angry, yet I am sad for the shame he caused my friends and family and the way he chose to cope with it all in the end. Please do not release more information than the media. We do not need anymore media attraction... I only pray now that his actions do not harm those who knew him and trusted him like myself. We need to forget this and move on,,,
unfortunately...his actions did hurt people..just because it wasn't you, Anonymous, doesn't mean this is all going to go away....believe me, more than anyone, I wish that it would...but it won't anytime soon and the pain he caused won't be forgotten. you may be free to forget and move on...but please don't expect that from his victims, who once too thought they were his friends who "knew him and trusted him".
