State police arrested Patrick Deck, of Watchung, at an amusement park in August 2012 for allegedly filming children in a bathroom without their or their parents' knowledge. The next day, authorities executed a search warrant at Deck's home and found multiple videos and images containing child sexual abuse.

The 54-year-old Deck pleaded guilty Tuesday to two counts of transporting child pornography. He faces up to 40 years in prison when he's sentenced on Jan. 12.

Deck also has admitted that between 1997 and 2010, he transported two children, beginning when they were about 11 years old, to locations across the country so he could film them engaging in sexually explicit conduct.
