RIVERTON, NJ — A 26-year-old man has been charged with possession and distribution of child sexual abuse material.
Christian Lutz, of Riverton, was taken into custody at his residence this morning and lodged in the Burlington County Jail in Mount Holly pending a first appearance in Superior Court.
The charges against Lutz include distribution of child sexual abuse material, a second-degree crime, and possession of child sexual abuse material, a third-degree crime.
Multiple cell phones were seized during the execution of a search warrant at his residence and will be analyzed by the Burlington County Prosecutor’s Office High-Tech Crimes Unit.
The case will then be prepared for presentation to a grand jury for possible indictment.
The investigation began after the prosecutor’s office received information from the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children concerning Lutz’s online activities.
The investigation revealed that Lutz exchanged videos with others that showed toddlers and prepubescent children engaged in sexual acts with adult males.
The investigation was conducted by the prosecutor’s office, with assistance from the Riverton Police Department and Evesham Township Police Department.
The lead investigator was BCPO Detective Troy Sudeck.
Lutz will be prosecuted by the BCPO Special Victims Unit.
