NJ Child Porn Sting Nets Suspects

by 6 ABC-AP | May 9, 2002
NJ Child Porn Sting Nets Suspects Law enforcement officials say they've identified 200 potential suspects after taking over what they say was a child porn Web site in New Jersey. The individuals are in 16 countries and 29 states -- including Pennsylvania. They include teachers, police officers, bus drivers and students.

"Operation Web Sweep" began in February when the state Criminal Justice Division disabled the site and removed all child pornography. Investigators then posted a replacement page and solicited images.

The state called in the F-B-I when it realized the scope of the operation.

Officials are executing search warrants, which remain sealed because of the ongoing investigation.
