SPRINGFIELD, MA (FRANKLIN COUNTY NOW) — A Turners Falls man will be spending three years in prison after a federal grand jury found him guilty of possessing over 300,000 files of child sexual abuse material.
79 year-old Edward Dunphy was sentenced by U.S. District Court Judge Mark Mastroianni on Wednesday to three years prison and five years of supervised release for the child pornography charges.
In 2023, a search warrant located multiple devices containing the 340,000 files of child pornography and in April of this year, Dunphy pleaded guilty.
