A Janesville teenager charged with possession of child pornography has his bond conditions modified to allow him to use computers at the public library to search for jobs.

At 19-year-old Alex Acker’s initial appearance in Rock County Court last month on four counts of possession of child pornography, Court Commissioner Jack Hoag ordered that he not possess any device that can access the Internet

According to the criminal complaint, Janesville Police received a tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children about a Snapchat account belonging to Acker that contained photos and videos of pre-pubescent children being sexually assaulted.

Some of the files dated back to July of 2023 when Acker was only 17-years-old.

According to the criminal complaint Acker admitted to police that he had been addicted to child pornography since he was in middle school and knew it was wrong.

In Rock County Court Monday Acker waived his right to a preliminary hearing and was bound over for trial.

An arraignment is set for October 28th.
