FRANKLIN (Somerset) — A 28-year-old Somerset man has been busted for an extensive collection of child sexual abuse materials.

Albert J. Ketrow was charged last month with second-degree endangering the welfare of the child - possession of child pornography over 1000 items.

The December arrest unfolded as multiple tips from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, prompting an investigation by the Somerset County Prosecutor’s Office Computer Crimes Unit.

Ketrow was arrested on Dec. 12, after police seized multiple electronic devices from his home.

He was held in Somerset County jail for an initial period and has since been released, Somerset County Prosecutor John McDonald said on Friday.
