POSTED: Friday, April 20, 2007

A federal grand jury has indicted Christopher Andrew Piasecki, 20, of Illinois, for possessing images on his computer of children engaging in sexually explicit conduct in February 2007 while he was a student at Jacksonville University.

Piasecki is charged with possession of materials containing visual depictions of child pornography that were transported in interstate and foreign commerce.
