No bail for accused Paterson, NJ child porn ringleader

PATERSON — An accused child pornography ringleader will remain in jail ahead of his trial.

Delbin Noesi Gonzalez, 39, was arrested on July 15 after an investigation by the Passaic County Sheriff’s Office Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force.

At a Tuesday court hearing, a judge granted the prosecutor's request for the Paterson resident’s pretrial detention.

Investigators found that he had photos and videos of nude children engaged in sexual acts, ranging in age from infant to 14 years old, which he shared with other people via Facebook Messenger.

Noesi Gonzalez is charged with second-degree counts of leading a child pornography network, possession of child pornography and distribution of child pornography.

He also is charged with first-degree storing or maintaining child pornography on a file-sharing program.

If convicted, Noesi Gonzalez could face a lengthy prison term, as well as lifetime parole supervision and the requirements of registering as a Megan’s Law sex offender.
