During a June 2020 search warrant execution at Aiello’s home on Rumpf Avenue in Penndel Borough, investigators took a laptop computer and a 4 GB thumb drive that were later discovered to have child pornography on them, according to documents filed Monday by Falls Township police.
The child porn featured both boys and girls, police said.
Aiello, who worked as a DJ and singer, has been accused of sexually abusing six boys between 1993 and 2010, authorities said.
