A Schuylkill County jury found Antony Cuff, 47, of Shenandoah, guilty of 17 felony counts of possession of child sexual abuse material and one felony count of criminal use of a communication facility. According to prosecutors, the 17 counts represented more than 400 files.
Following the verdict, Cuff’s bail was revoked, and he was remanded to prison. A sentencing hearing will be scheduled after an evaluation by the Sex Offender Assessment Board.
Evidence presented during the trial indicated that Cuff accessed the files using a neighbor’s internet connection.
The case originated in February 2025, when the Office of Attorney General’s Child Predator Section executed a search at a Shenandoah residence after an IP address associated with the property was identified as being used to upload files of child sexual abuse material through Bing. Investigators later determined that Cuff had used a nearby internet connection to access the material. Agents also reported locating a doll in Cuff’s bedroom that they said is commonly associated with sex offenders.
“A key to stopping the horrific exploitation of children is to go after the offenders who seek out and possess these materials, and hold them accountable,” Attorney General Sunday said. “This jury recognized these files for what they depicted – abuse and exploitation of children – and returned a just verdict. My office will continue to protect our most vulnerable and relentlessly pursue those who harm them.”
The case was prosecuted by Deputy Attorney General Kimberly Moraski.
