Child Abuse investigator charged with child pornography - National Child Welfare | Examiner.com

It’s sad when the a person whom you assume to have the best interests of the children at heart turn out to be quite the opposite.

An Oneida County Child Protective Services case worker has been released on his own recognizance while he faces pending charges of possessing child pornography, according to federal court documents.
The conditions of his release include:
Participating in a home confinement program, which will include electronic monitoring and a daily curfew from 9 p.m. to 7 a.m.
Must not possess any computer with online capabilities or use any Internet site without court approval.
Stay away from places where anyone younger than 18 are likely to gather, including schools, parks and arcades, and must not have any direct contact with a person younger than 18.
On Tuesday, Dorozynski was charged in federal court with receiving and possessing child pornography after law enforcement officials searched Dorozynski’s Frankfort home earlier this week. His former girlfriend alerted authorities after her daughters told her that they had seen Dorozynski watching videos of naked girls on his computer. The girlfriend searched the computer when Dorozynski was not home and found sites related to child pornography. She then searched a trunk that he kept locked and found hard drives containing what appeared to be child pornography.

Dorozynski was a Utica police officer from 1980 until he retired in July 2000. He then became a county child protective services caseworker in 2008, where he was responsible for investigating child abuse cases.

The case will be prosecuted by the U.S. Attorney’s Office.

If convicted of the felony charges, Dorozynski faces a minimum of five years and a maximum of 20 years in federal prison, fines of up to $250,000 and a minimum of five years of supervised release. He also would be required to register as a sex offender, the release stated.

It makes you wonder what kind of person who sees firsthand the damage abuse does to children and whose job is to investigate, can also be a part of the problem.
