A North Providence man has been charged with producing child pornography, sparking a swift investigation by the Rhode Island State Police Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force.
Larry W. Albino, 50, has been detained following his initial appearance in U.S. District Court on Monday, September 16, 2024, on federal charges for production of child pornography.
According to charging documents, a Rhode Island State Police Detective assigned to the ICAC Task Force received information from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children that an IP address, later determined to belong to Albino’s residence, was used to upload ten files depicting the abuse of a pre-pubescent child.
Further investigation revealed that the location where the videos were recorded matched images of rooms recently displayed in an online property rental listing where Albino resides.
On September 17, 2024, members of the ICAC Task Force executed a court-authorized search of Albino’s residence and allegedly recognized that some of the furnishings of rooms inside Albino’s residence matched those depicted in the videos of child sexual abuse.
The case is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney John P. McAdams, with the matter being investigated by the Rhode Island State Police ICAC Task Force, with the assistance of Homeland Security Investigations.
This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse.
