A convicted felon has been arrested and charged with multiple child pornography charges in Rochester, New York.
According to a federal complaint, Jason Koscielski, 33, was arrested and charged with enticement of a minor, and possession and distribution of child pornography by an individual with a prior sex offense conviction.
The charges carry a mandatory minimum penalty of 10 years in prison and a maximum of 40 years.
Koscielski was previously convicted in December 2011 on federal charges of possession, receipt, and distribution of child pornography and sentenced to serve 135 months in prison and 30 years of supervised release.
On September 15, 2020, during a meeting with a United States Probation Officer, Koscielski told the officer that he was in possession of an unmonitored cellular telephone. The officer confiscated the cell phone for review and installation of monitoring software.
During a review of the cell phone, probation personnel observed images and videos that they believed could constitute child pornography. An FBI review of the images confirmed that the images and videos were child pornography.
Koscielski was previously charged with violating the conditions of his supervised release for possessing and downloading child pornography. He pleaded guilty to a violation of his supervised release and was sentenced to serve another 12 months in prison.
