Troy Malecki, 48, Charged in Child Porn Case
A 48-year-old Williamsville man is facing federal charges for possession of child pornography.
According to court documents, Troy Malecki was part of an online community dedicated to the exchange and discussion of child pornography. On September 18, 2015, FBI agents executed a search warrant at Malecki’s residence and seized his cellular phone. A forensic examination revealed Malecki was in possession of more than 850 images of child pornography, some of which depicted prepubescent children less than 12 years of age.
Malecki made an initial appearance before U.S. Magistrate Judge Michael J. Roemer and was ordered to abide by the conditions of the Home Confinement Program, which requires that he be electronically monitored.
The investigation was led by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Violent Crimes Against Children Program, under the direction of Special Agent in Charge Adam S. Cohen.
The charge against Malecki carries a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison and a fine of $250,000.
The fact that a defendant has been charged with a crime is merely an accusation and the defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.
