A Canonsburg man pleaded guilty in federal court this week to possessing child pornography after authorities found electronic devices containing lewd images and videos of minor children in his home, federal prosecutors said.

Kevin Francisco Torres-Gerena, 26, pleaded guilty to one count of possessing child pornography, U.S. Attorney Scott W. Brady said.

According to Brady, efforts in connection with a Homeland Security investigation revealed that Torres-Gerena was the subscriber of an IP address associated with successful downloads of child pornography.

Authorities on Sept. 5, 2018, executed a federal search warrant at Torres-Gerena’s home, where they seized electronic devices, Brady said. A forensic review of those devices revealed 116 videos and 36 images depicting the sexual exploitation of minors, many of whom were under 12.

Torres-Gerena’s sentencing is set for May 28.
