Salem Man Pleads Guilty on Child Porn Charges

A Salem man pleads guilty after being caught with thousands of pictures of child pornography.

Tony Marino, 32, was arrested back in March after Salem police found the pictures on his hard-drive, and more than 100 printed pictures in his home.

On Wednesday, he pleaded guilty to ten counts of possession of material of minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct.

He's now facing up to 20 years in jail and up to $20,000 in fines.

Marino is being held in the north central regional jail. Judge Jim Matish set sentencing for February 5.
