TOMS RIVER – An Ocean County man has admitted to possessing child sexual abuse material and is expected to face probation when he is sentenced later this year, prosecutors said.
Marc Fay, 42, of Brick Township, pleaded guilty January 28 to a charge of possession of child sexual abuse material in Superior Court before Judge Linda Baxter, according to Ocean County Prosecutor Bradley D. Billhimer.
At sentencing, scheduled for March 27, prosecutors plan to seek a five-year term of probation. The recommended conditions include a ban on unsupervised contact with minors and a prohibition on internet access.
The charge stems from an investigation conducted by the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office High Tech Crime Squad, working with the Brick Township Police Department Detective Bureau. Authorities said a forensic analysis of Fay’s cellphone uncovered a video containing child sexual abuse material.
Fay was charged October 16, 2025, and later surrendered to Brick Township police. He was taken to the Ocean County Jail and subsequently released under New Jersey’s bail reform guidelines.
Billhimer credited Supervising Assistant Prosecutor Shanon Chant-Berry, along with members of the High Tech Crime Squad and Brick Township detectives, for their work on the case.
