Phelps Man Pleads Guilty to Federal Child Porn Charge

Federal prosecutors say a 37-year-old Ontario County man has pleaded guilty to receiving and distributing child porn.

37-year-old Eric Passalacqua of Phelps was arrested after a tip to the FBI from Anchorage, Alaska about someone in Ontario County exchanging porn with someone in Alaska.

A search of Passalacqua's home found more than 600 pornographic images involving children, including some he produced himself involving at least two minor victims.

He also faces 1st-degree sexual abuse in Ontario County, as deputies say he had sexual contact with a 6-year-old child last June.
