Auto Repair Shop Owner Sentenced On Child Porn Charges

TRENTON, N.J. (AP) — A man who had dozens of child pornography images and videos on a computer at his auto repair business has been sentenced to five years in state prison.

Celalletti "Steve" Koc of Hamilton Township in Mercer County will also have to register as a sex offender under the sentence imposed Friday.

The 27-year-old Koc had pleaded guilty last November to distributing child pornography.

Koc was among 28 people charged in two child pornography sweeps conducted by the state and federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement investigators. Those sweeps focused on offenders in New Jersey.

State authorities say Koc had more than 160 videos of child porn on his computer, including child rape videos, and more than 120 images of child porn.
