On July 13, 2016 detectives from the Connecticut State Police Computer Crimes Unit, with the assistance of the FBI, Homeland Security Investigations and the Hamden Police Department served a Search and Seizure Warrant at 1521 Aspen Glen Dr., Hamden.
The search warrant was part of an on-going investigation into the possession of child pornography. State Police detectives initiated the investigation in June 2016 after video files of suspected child pornography were downloaded from the Internet account assigned to Justin Goldstein.
Computers and computer-related equipment were seized from Goldstein’s residence during the search. The seized items were examined on-scene, and files of suspected child pornography were located.
Goldstein was later located at his place of employment (WTNH) and taken into custody. Goldstein was transported to Troop I-Bethany where he was fingerprinted, photographed and was released after posting bond pending his court date.
