On Tuesday, September 21, 2021, members of the Bergen County Prosecutor’s Office Cyber Crimes Unit executed a search warrant at the residence of JOHN A.

The investigation revealed that BELL used the Internet to view, download, or possess more than 1,000 digital files depicting nude and/or sexually explicit prepubescent children, as well as share digital files via the Internet depicting nude and/or sexually explicit pubescent and prepubescent children. The investigation also revealed that BELL filmed/photographed pre-pubescent children while they were posed and/or exposed in a sexually suggestive manner. In addition, BELL engaged in sexually explicit behavior and sexual activity while he was alone with three children.
As a result of the investigation, JOHN A.

Prosecutor Musella states that the charges are merely an accusation and that the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. Prosecutor Musella thanks the Montvale Police Department for its assistance in this investigation, as well as the Lyndhurst and Ramsey Police Departments, which participate in the Bergen County Cyber Crimes Task Force.
That’s so disgusting, I just can’t understand how the government can’t eliminate these websites. There’s got to be away.
The gov runs these sites lol
I’d guess the websites are overseas. The same slimebags that send spam, do cyber extortion,
and allow telephone crews to call you about your car warranty.
If Joe Biden had any balls he’d sanction countries that allow this disgusting child porn to be hosted on the websites within their boundry. But Hunter probably gets 10% for the big guy so it aint happeniing
