Grand Jury Returns Dozens of Indictments in Warren County

A Warren County grand jury returned dozens of indictments during its July 2026 term, charging multiple defendants with offenses ranging from child pornography and child solicitation to financial crimes, drug possession, assault on law enforcement officers, and weapons violations.

NICKOLAS EVANS

Among the largest cases, Nickolas Randolph Evans was indicted on 31 felony counts alleging possession of child pornography. The indictments allege the offenses occurred on or about Feb. 10, 2025, with each count charging unlawful and knowing possession of child pornography under Virginia law.

JOSEPH KOZAK

Another significant case involves Joseph Edward Kozak, who was indicted on multiple felony charges stemming from alleged online communications with someone believed to be younger than 15 years old. The indictments include charges of using electronic communications to solicit a child, proposing sexual acts to a child under 15, and possession of a Schedule I or II controlled substance. One indictment also alleges a prior qualifying conviction involving child solicitation.

The grand jury also indicted Daniel Lloyd Haney on several felony bad-check charges.
