Moorestown Bus Driver Busted On Child Pornography Charges: Police

Gloucester Township, NJ -- A bus driver for the Moorestown School District and Moorestown Friends School has been arrested and charged with possession of child pornography, authorities announced on Friday.

Robert Lynch, 55, of Gloucester Township, was charged with third-degree possession of child pornography, and was released on his own recognizance.

Lynch is a bus driver for the Moorestown School District and Moorestown Friends School, Camden County Prosecutor Mary Eva Colalillo and Gloucester Township Police Chief Harry Earle said.

He is employed through a third-party supplier used by the schools, according to Moorestown Superintendent of Schools Scott McCartney.

That supplier has been notified of the arrest by the prosecutor’s office, and McCartney said the company won't be using Lynch to transport students in the district.

The bus service had no comment when contacted by Patch Friday afternoon.

Lynch was arrested at about 5:30 a.m. Friday morning following the execution of a search warrant at his home on the first block of Austin Avenue in the Glendora section of Gloucester Township.

An onsite forensic preview of the digital media devices located in the home confirmed the presence of child pornography.

The search warrant was executed by the Camden County Prosecutor’s Office High Tech Crimes Unit, with assistance from the Gloucester Township Police Department, Homeland Security Investigations – Cherry Hill Office, and the Gloucester Township SRT.
