A Cranberry Township man is facing over 100 charges after he was found with over 1,500 files of child pornography.
After multiple online tips, a subpoena was issued to Verizon for an account later discovered under control of 63-year-old William Stanek Jr. The address connected to the Verizon account had been Stanek’s home since 1979.
When Stanek was being interviewed by police he admitted to possessing child pornography for approximately 20 years. After a forensic examination, over 1,500 files of material was found.
Stanek has been charged with seven counts of disseminating photo/film of child sex abuse acts, 100 counts of child sex abuse material, and two charges of criminal use of communication facility.
He was unable to post the $25,000 bail. A preliminary hearing is scheduled for Dec. 6.
