A Toms River man will spend five years in a New Jersey state prison after pleading guilty to possessing child pornography.
Henry Ziolkowski, 56, was sentenced Friday by Superior Court Judge Michael T. Collins. Ziolkowski pled guilty before Judge Collins on Dec. 1, 2020.
The investigation that led to Ziolkowski’s arrest and guilty plea was the result of several referrals from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children through the New Jersey State Police Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, which identified a residence in Toms River as the location of several uploads of child pornography.
On July 7, 2020, Detectives from the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office High Tech Crime Unit and Toms River Township Police Department executed a search warrant on the residence that had been identified. As a result, detectives seized a computer belonging to Ziolkowski which contained “numerous images of child pornography.” Ziolkowski was arrested and processed at Toms River Police headquarters.
Ziolkowski has been lodged in the Ocean County Jail since the date of his arrest.
