RACINE — A 19-year-old Racine man charged with six counts of possessing child pornography pleaded not guilty during a hearing Wednesday.
According to previous Journal Times reporting, Ernesto Roman was arrested after the Racine County Sheriff’s Office received two cyber tips from the Wisconsin Department of Justice Division of Criminal Investigation.
According to a criminal complaint, both tips contained child pornography and were generated by WhatsApp.
Information obtained through a warrant to WhatsApp reportedly indicated that Roman was the account owner and revealed six videos containing child pornography.
RCSO investigators searched Roman’s home April 14.
Roman also was questioned and allegedly provided information connecting him to the cyber tips and the account.
According to online court records, Roman is scheduled to appear in court June 17.
