Wheaton cops charge man in child porn case
A 27-year-old man was charged with four counts of aggravated possession of child pornography after an online investigation by Wheaton police, authorities said Friday.
Deputy Chief Tom Meloni said in a release that Robert K. Mariani turned himself in at the DuPage County sheriff’s office about 10:30 a.m. Thursday.
Mariani was charged and released from DuPage County jail after posting $30,000 bail, or 10 percent of his $300,000 bond.
The county’s E-crimes unit assisted in the investigation.
The release said no additional information was available because it remains an ongoing investigation.
