A resident of Bristol Township’s Levittown section is facing charges after a child pornography investigation.

Bucks County Detectives received a tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children earlier this year alleging a user of cloud storage platform Dropbox had uploaded suspected child porn, according to court papers.
Files reviewed by detectives showed prepubescent and pubescent boys and girls depicted as being involved in sex acts, including with adults, authorities said.
Dagostin-Scoleri became a suspect as the investigation progressed.

Dagostin-Scoleri was interviewed by county detectives in late summer and stated he previously had a Dropbox account he used for holding paintball photos. He added he is not sure if someone else was using his account and thought he may have been set up, according to authorities.
In charging documents, detectives alleged Dagostin-Scoleri possessed 56 images and video of child porn between 2019 and early 2021.
