CAMDEN COUNTY, NJ – Five men were taken into custody last month as part of a coordinated investigation into the possession and distribution of child sexual abuse material, authorities announced Monday.

According to Camden County Prosecutor Grace C. MacAulay, the arrests followed multiple cyber tips and were carried out by the Prosecutor’s Office High Tech Crimes Unit with assistance from the Gloucester Township Police Department, Camden County Sheriff’s Office, Cherry Hill Police Department, Oaklyn Police Department, and Berlin Police Department.

The five defendants — ranging in age from 18 to 27 — were each charged between January 14 and January 30, 2026, following separate investigations that linked their online accounts to illicit material. All were remanded to the Camden County Correctional Facility.

Suspects charged across multiple towns

Investigators said Brayan Lector-Luna, 22, of Oaklyn, was charged with multiple counts including second-degree distribution and possession with intent to distribute CSAM after a forensic search of his cell phone revealed illegal material. He was arrested January 14 and later faced an additional second-degree possession charge on January 21 after further evidence was uncovered.

Christopher Zubrzycki, 27, of Philadelphia, formerly of Cherry Hill, was arrested January 14 and charged with third-degree possession of CSAM after detectives identified him as the user of an online account flagged in a cyber tip.

Ethan Byrne, 20, of Gloucester Township, was charged January 20 with third-degree possession of CSAM. Detectives said his online account contained both illicit images and selfie-style photos confirming his identity.

Julian Rovaggi, 18, of Berlin Borough, was charged January 28 with third-degree possession of CSAM following a similar cyber tip investigation.
