A New York City police officer was indicted on 119 counts of possessing child pornography on Thursday, in Suffolk County Court.
Suffolk County District Attorney Raymond A. Tierney announced in a press release that Steven Marksberry, 50, of Lake Grove, New York, allegedly took screenshots and saved child sexual abuse material to his cellphone.
An investigation got underway when the Suffolk County Police Department received a tip from Internet Crimes Against Children, alerting the agency that Marksberry allegedly uploaded child sexual abuse pictures to his iCloud storage account.
