Assistant U.S. Attorney Scott S. Allen, Jr., who is handling the case, stated that according to the complaint, on September 1, 2016, the Federal Bureau of Investigation executed a search warrant at Robert Acker’s residence and seized several electronic devices and DVDs. A forensic examination revealed that Acker was in possession of more than 7,000 images of child pornography, some of which depict prepubescent children less than 12 years of age.
Acker made an initial appearance this morning before U.S. Magistrate Judge H. Kenneth Schroeder, Jr., and was ordered to abide by the conditions of the Home Confinement Program, which requires that he be electronically monitored.
The criminal complaint is the result of an investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Violent Crimes Against Children program, under the direction of Special Agent in Charge Adam S. Cohen.
