PHILADELPHIA (KYW Newsradio) — A Delaware County man faces charges for possessing dozens of child sexual abuse materials, along with other lewd photos of girls.

Pennsylvania Attorney General Dave Sunday said 50-year-old Chad Lauletta of Springfield filmed a video of a woman engaged in a sexual act, which he recorded without the woman’s permission.

The investigation began after an adult woman reported to police that she discovered concerning files on Lauletta’s phone. Authorities said Lauletta was a former paramour.

Authorities found dozens of child sexual abuse material files at his home, along with numerous photographs of underdressed girls who officials suspect are teens. Many of those photos were found to be screenshots from social media, and in at least one instance, police said, he took a photo himself.

Lauletta is being held on $1 million bail.
