Overview
- Prosecutors say David Vincent Rosa has been charged with more than 300 counts, including rape of a child and hundreds of child pornography counts, after investigators extracted videos and more than 1,000 still images from his devices.
- The investigation began after roughly three dozen cybertips from Google to an Internet Crimes Against Children task force prompted searches and led to Rosa’s April 2 arrest on initial child-pornography charges.
- Officials say the recovered material, dated 2017–2024, includes videos showing children who appear younger than 10 and women who appear unconscious, and that some files were shared repeatedly through Google’s chat service.
- Authorities allege Rosa used work as a transient handyman and house painter to gain entry to homes across southeastern Pennsylvania, and detectives are asking anyone who hired him or recognizes the bedroom pictured by police to come forward.
- The case spans multiple counties, remains under active investigation as prosecutors identify more victims, and Rosa is jailed in Chester County Prison pending prosecution with discrepancies in some public reports about his age unresolved.
