Volunteer firefighter facing child porn charges

KINGSTON, LUZERNE COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU) — A volunteer firefighter has been arrested detectives say he was in possession of child pornography.

According to investigators, on July 18, they received a cyber tip from Google that an account linked to the name “Little Wolfey352” uploaded a video of suspected child sexual abuse to a Google Drive.

Officials say they located 21-year-old Jacob Peter Wolfe, of Kingston, as the account associated with the name “Little Wolfey352.”

Court documents state officers say they made contact with Wolfe at his place of employment on July 24, and he agreed to allow officers to search his phone and iPad.

Investigators said Wolfe told them he had been viewing child pornography for five years and he used specific websites to download images and videos of child sexual abuse material.

Wolfe admitted he uses Paypal, Venmo, and Cashapp to purchase those materials, police added.

28/22 News reached out to Chief Guido at Kingston/Forty Fort Fire Department, who stated Wolfe is a volunteer firefighter, not a career firefighter, and as soon as they were made aware of the allegations, he was immediately suspended.

Officials have charged him with child pornography and criminal use of a communication facility.
