Pennsylvania State Police corporal from Havertown charged with using work computer to store porn

Pennsylvania State Police have charged one of their own with using his work computer to store pornography.

Stephen M. Kamnik, a corporal from Havertown, allegedly kept thousands of pornographic images on a hard drive at his work station in Schwenksville, Montgomery County. Investigators said they uncovered evidence that artificial intelligence generated some of the files; select media was produced with software used to create deepfakes, according to law enforcement.
