An Oceanport man has been sentenced to 6-years in prison for distributing child sexual abuse materials, announced Monmouth County Prosecutor Chris Gramiccioni.

Kevin Long, 28, of Wolfhill Avenue had previously plead guilty on October 22, 2018 to one count of second degree Endangering the Welfare of a Child involving the Distribution of Child Pornography.

On Friday, Long was sentenced to state prisonby Monmouth County Superior Court Judge Richard W. English, J.S.C. and will be subject to the provisions of Megan’s Law upon his release from prison.

Long was arrested in 2018 after detectives from the Monmouth County Prosecutor’s Office conducted a search of his home and various personal electronic devices were seized and examined, revealing child sexual abuse items had been possessed and electronically distributed.

A forensic examination of the devices found that Long had distributed videos depicting the sexual abuse of children via a peer-to-peer file-sharing program – an online connection of computers allowing the sharing of files directly between individual users.

The case was prosecuted by Monmouth County Assistant Prosecutor Stephanie Dugan.

Long is represented by Richard Incremona, Esq., of Freehold.
