Six South Jersey Men Busted in State-wide Child Porn Sweep

Six local men are among the Forty men from New Jersey charged with possession of child pornography, according to New Jersey Attorney General Christopher Porrino.

According to a State Police press release, the six-month investigation, called Operation Statewide, was a proactive effort coordinated by the New Jersey Regional Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force.

Of the 40 arrested, 37 have been charged with distribution of these images as well as possession.  A number of seized computers each had more than 1,000 juvenile pornographic images and videos stored on them—one had more than 76,000 files.

The Operation Statewide law enforcement team, led by New Jersey State Police detectives, followed the digital fingerprint of known images of child porn as they were being sent and received over file sharing networks to specific computers.

Internet addresses were traced to street addresses and detectives from partnering agencies knocked on the doors of many surprised defendants, one of whom was in the process of downloading child porn images.
