Shenandoah man convicted in child sexual abuse material case

SHENANDOAH – A Shenandoah man was convicted at trial this week on 17 counts of possession of child sexual abuse material, the Pennsylvania Attorney General’s Office said.

Antony Cuff, 47, of Shenandoah, was arrested last February after a search warrant was executed on his East Oak Street home. Authorities said he had uploaded files of child sexual abuse material through Bing using a neighbor’s internet connection and had a doll commonly owned by 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.”

Cuff was convicted at trial this week. His bail was revoked and he was remanded to Schuylkill County Prison.

A sentencing hearing will take place at a later date.
