State Police detectives allege a northern New Jersey man had an electronic storage device that contained hundreds of images and videos depicting child pornography.
Michael Prinzo was arrested after authorities executed a search warrant last month at his Weehawken home. They were acting on a tip called in to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.
While searching Prinzo's home, detectives say they found a USB storage device hidden in a container. They say it was designed to appear like an ordinary toiletry product, but a forensic examination of the device revealed hundreds of illicit images and videos.
Authorities announced Tuesday that the 24-year-old Prinzo was charged with possessing and distributing child porn. His bail was set at $100,000, and it's not known if he retained an attorney.
