New Jersey GOP Official Arrested On Child Porn Charges

The New York Post reports:

A one-time aide to former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie was arrested this month for allegedly paying for a photo of a 6-year-old girl being sexually abused. Kevin Tomafsky, 41, was nabbed Aug. 15 after a grand jury indicted him in July on multiple child sexual abuse charges.

Tomafsky had been under investigation since October 2022, when Snapchat reported the uploading of alleged child sex abuse to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, which was then sent to the Gloucester County Prosecutor’s office.

Tomafsky’s latest string of jobs included legislative director for Assemblyman Sam Fiocchi (R-Vineland) and president of the Washington Township Republican Club, while also working on Republican political campaigns. He was working at an undisclosed government job until Friday, when he resigned.

The New Jersey Globe reports:



Tomafsky is charged with engaging in sexual conduct with a child, conspiracy to endanger the welfare of a child, permitting a child to engage in pornography, and the procession of child pornography.

A Superior Court judge authorized a search warrant of the home Tomafsky shares with his mother. The search was conducted on December 14, 2022, and an examination of devices belonging to him revealed his possession of less than 1,000 items of child sexual abuse materials.

Three sources say that another man charged with Tomafsky was the victim’s father; both are Washington Township residents. Tomafsky is currently being held at the Salem County Correctional Facility in Mannington.
