A Pennsylvania State Police Corporal is lodged in the Westmoreland County Jail, unable to make bond, after being arrested on 34 separate counts of child pornography.  Authorities say Sean McKenzie, assigned to Troop T in New Stanton, was suspended without pay pending the resolution of the criminal charges.  McKenzie has been with the State Police since 2008.  The laundry list of charges against McKenzie include child pornography, photographing or videotaping sexual acts and dissemination of photographs, videotapes and films.  Investigators said when he was picked up, he had a USB drive in his pocket containing child pornography and images on his phone.  McKenzie was arraigned and his bail was set at five-hundred-thousand-dollars.
