When investigators went to his home in the far North Side in October, he admitted to looking at pornographic images of young children engaged in sexual acts on his computer, the affidavit states.
Investigators said they located more than 550 files on the device. There were hundreds more files of child pornography on the computer but investigators said they didn’t document those additional files because they hit their threshold.
