New Hampshire, Massachusetts Men Face Child Porn, Other Charges

NASHUA, NH — Police in Nashua, working with the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, arrested eight men Wednesday on various charges connected to child sexual image and computer crime accusations.

According to Lt. Matthew DiFava, police in Nashua, as well as the task force, which works to combat child exploitation, New Hampshire State Police, and the Immigration and Customs Enforcement's Homeland Security Investigations began investigating a "large number of cases" reported through the Internet during the initial stages of the COVID-19 pandemic.

"The Nashua Police Department’s Special Investigations Division with the assistance of the Computer Forensics Unit executed eight search warrants during the month of June related to the possession and distribution of child sexual abuse images in the city of Nashua," DiFava said. "The Nashua Police Department also engaged in proactive investigations identifying those soliciting children via the internet."

As a result of the investigations and search warrants, one man, Mohammad No Aimat, 22, of Black Oak Drive in Nashua, was arrested on a single felony count of distribution of child sexual abuse image.

Six other men were arrested on possession charges: Robert Tango, 36, of Blossom Street in Nashua faces four felony counts of possession of child sexual abuse images; Michael Banks, 42, of Johnson Road in East Hampstead was arrested on one felony count; Juan Correa, 31, of Ladd Place in Watertown, MA, was arrested on a single felony count; Glen Hart, 33, of Kessler Farm Drive in Nashua was arrested on three felony counts; Justin Famorlare Gray, 21, of Glenwood Street in Nashua, was arrested on five felony counts; and Dakota Clifford, 26, of Hazel Drive in Manchester was arrested on four felony counts of manufacturing child sexual abuse images.

Keith Bernasconi, 39, of Cosworth Circle in Nashua was arrested on two counts of felony indecent exposure and lewdness. Police accuse him of communicating with a person online who he believed to be a minor.

"(Bernasconi) sent two images which were sexual in nature," DiFava said.

Aimat, Bernasconi, Clifford, Correa, Gary, Hart, and Tango were all released on personal recognizance bail and are all due in Hillsborough County Superior Court South on Aug. 20. Banks was held by New Hampshire Probation and Parole and was scheduled to be arraigned Thursday.
