June 25, 2025–Richard Allen Adamsky, a longtime Catholic school teacher and youth sports coach from Warminster Township, has been arrested following an investigation into the possession and distribution of child sexual abuse material (CSAM). The 65-year-old was taken into custody on Wednesday morning after law enforcement executed a search warrant at his residence. Adamsky now faces felony charges of possession of child sexual abuse material and criminal use of a communication facility.
The investigation, led by the FBI Child Exploitation and Human Trafficking Task Force, with the assistance of the Pennsylvania Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force, began in March 2025. The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) alerted authorities to suspicious online activity involving the downloading and sharing of CSAM. NCMEC’s report specifically referenced an image of a prepubescent female posing nude with her genitals exposed, which was uploaded via an IP address linked to Microsoft Bing Reverse Image Search.
The investigation ultimately traced the IP address to Verizon, which provided authorities with Adamsky’s name and address. A search warrant was then executed at his Warminster home on June 25, where Adamsky was found alone. According to a criminal complaint, during questioning, Adamsky admitted to searching for, downloading, and saving hundreds of images depicting CSAM over a period of four to five years. When asked how many images he had saved, Adamsky reportedly responded, “too many.”
One particularly disturbing image, discovered on his computer and dated March 28, 2025, depicted a prepubescent female exposing her genitals. Authorities noted that Adamsky’s position as a teacher at Nativity of Our Lord Catholic School, where he instructs children in the same age range depicted in the illicit images, raised further concerns. In addition to his role as an educator, Adamsky also coached youth sports at the school.
Magisterial District Judge Christopher E. O’Neill arraigned Adamsky, setting bail at $500,000, 10 percent, and remanding him to Bucks County Correctional Facility. A preliminary hearing is scheduled for August 4, 2025, at 2:45 p.m.
The investigation remains ongoing, and authorities are urging anyone with additional information to come forward. Warminster Detective Stephen Wojciechowski can be reached at 215-672-1000.
Deputy District Attorney Monica W. Furber has been assigned to prosecute the case. Authorities are also reminding the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity to help protect children from exploitation.
This arrest underscores the ongoing commitment of law enforcement agencies in the Delaware Valley to combat online child exploitation and hold perpetrators accountable for their actions.
