MOUNT LAUREL, NJ.- Burlington County Prosecutor LaChia L. Bradshaw reported that earlier today, a 23-year-old Mount Laurel, New Jersey, man was taken and charged in connection with possessing digital images and videos containing child pornography.
During the morning hours of Wednesday, August 21, 2024, following an investigation. Detectives of the Burlington County Prosecutor’s Office High-Tech Crimes Unit and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Investigations executed a court-authorized search warrant at the residence of Robert Nault, 23, of Mount Laurel, New Jersey.
During the search, detectives seized multiple electronic devices from Nault, which will be examined by detectives. During the search, Nault was taken into custody and formally charged with third-degree Possession of Child Sexual Abuse Material. After being processed on the charge, Nault made his first appearance in Burlington County Superior Court and was released on bail conditions.
