ALBANY—A former computer programmer for the state Department of Health will be spending the next 58 months in federal prison after admitting that he used both state owned and personal computers to store images of child pornography.
Andrew Swartz, 38, of Clifton Park, was also sentenced to 10 years of supervised release following the completion of his prison term. U.S. District Judge Lawrence Kahn also ordered that Swartz is to have no unsupervised contact with minors and must register as a sex offender.
He pleaded guilty in March to one count of possessing child pornography, admitting more than 1,000 images depicting minors having sex were recovered from computers at his home including one computer owned by the state.
Swartz came under investigation after he used his credit card in April 2006 to buy an online subscription to a website offering child pornography. 7-18-08
