Registered Sex Offender in NJ Sentenced for Possession of Child Porn
A registered sex offender in New Jersey who spent time in prison in 2014 will be returning to jail on new child porn-related charges.
U.S. Attorney Philip Sellinger says 35-year-old Robert Klemt of Wayne was sentenced on Monday to 120 months in prison for possessing multiple images and videos depicting child sexual abuse.
According to Sellinger's office,
In June 2020, agents with the Department of Homeland Security – Homeland Security Investigations approached Klemt at his residence after receiving information suggesting that Klemt had accessed a website containing images of child sexual abuse. Law enforcement subsequently discovered on Klemt’s laptop computer over 70 images and videos depicting the sexual abuse of children.
Klemt was previously convicted of endangering the welfare of a child/distribution of child pornography in Essex County in 2014.
In addition to the prison term, Klemt was also sentenced to ten years of supervised release.
