New Cumberland Man Charged with Receiving Child Pornography
HARRISBURG – A New Cumberland man has been charged with receiving child pornography, according to the United States Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania.
Earl T. Cook Jr., 54, of New Cumberland, Pennsylvania, was charged in a criminal information on July 24, 2018, with receipt of child pornography.
