Greenfield man accused of possessing child porn

March 4, 2012

A 44-year-old Greenfield man has been charged with five counts of possession of child pornography after he confessed to police he stored a couple of hundred videos.

Michael L. Munkacsy told police he is attracted to girls between 10 and 15 years old, according to a criminal complaint.

Police found out by tracking several videos from a file sharing network to Munkacsy's computer, court records show.

Munkacsy was charged with five counts although a police officer conducting a quick initial search found at least 12 videos on a hard drive, seized from Munkacsy's residence on W. Beloit Road on Feb. 7, of children engaging in sex, according to the complaint.

Munkacsy is facing up to 25 years in prison and $100,000 in fines for each of the five counts. He is scheduled for a preliminary hearing on Thursday.
