TOMS RIVER – A local man will be serving five years in prison for uploading child pornography, police said.

  Henry Ziolkowski, 56, of Toms River, was sentenced to five years in state prison. He will be subject to parole supervision for life.

  He admitted to the crime on December 1, 2020. He had been arrested on July 7 after detectives from Toms River Police and the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office High Tech Crime Unit came to his house and seized his computer. They had been tipped off by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children through the New Jersey State Police Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force that his residence had been a location where several uploads of child pornography happened. He has been in jail ever since.

  Ocean County Prosecutor Bradley Billhimer thanked Assistant Prosecutor Shanon Chant-Berry who handled the case on behalf of the State, as well as the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office High Tech Crime Unit, Toms River Township Police Department, New Jersey State Police Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, and National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, for their collective and combined assistance in this investigation.
