Marcobrien S. Volcy, 28, of Rochester, NY, pleaded guilty before Chief U.S. District Judge Elizabeth A. Wolford to possession of child pornography following a prior New York conviction for possessing child pornography. The charge carries a mandatory minimum of 10 years in prison, up to 20 years, and a $250,000 fine.
Volcy’s legal troubles date back to August 2023, when he pleaded guilty in Monroe County Court to possessing a sexual performance by a child under 16 and was sentenced to one to three years in prison. While still on state probation, Volcy was caught on January 19, 2024, with a cell phone containing more than 650 images and videos of child pornography, some depicting prepubescent children.
Sentencing has not yet been scheduled.
