Toms River man pleads guilty to child pornography charges
A former youth camp leader in Toms River, NJ, has pleaded guilty to charges of transporting child pornography over the Internet. Steven T. Baryla, who led the private nonprofit Cedar Bridge Military Academy, faces five to 20 years in prison.
