Buffalo Priest Charged With Child Porn | Rochester News

A Buffalo priest, Jeffrey Nowak, 46, faces serious criminal charges after authorities found child pornography on his devices during a search. Once placed on administrative leave in 2019 over allegations of inappropriate contact with minors and harassment, his case resurfaced in March 2026 when he was linked to a Telegram group containing child abuse material. Law enforcement executed a warrant at his home, seizing electronics, suspected drugs, and a USB drive — all containing damning evidence. Nowak is set to stand trial tomorrow, facing a minimum of five years and up to 20 years in prison if convicted. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
