The investigation into McGrath's alleged criminal activities began when the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children received a tip earlier this year, Gloucester Twp. Police Department reports. Detectives with Gloucester Township Police Department partnered with Homeland Security and the Camden County Prosecutor's Office's High Tech Crimes Unit on the case.

McGrath currently sits in the Camden County Correctional Facility pending a court hearing. He faces charges of second-degree distribution of child pornography and third-degree possession of child pornography.
