Child porn suspect pleads guilty

NORWALK — A Plymouth man accused of possessing child pornography pleaded guilty on Tuesday to multiple felony charges. Adrian Gamboa, 37, of the 4000 block of Baseline Road, pleaded guilty to five counts of pandering obscenity involving a minor or impaired person, each a fourth-degree felony. Gamboa pleaded guilty to the five charges in exchange for 10 counts of pandering sexually-oriented matter involving a minor or impaired person, each a fourth-degree felony, to be dismissed. According to his October 2025 indictment, Gamboa was indicted on 15 counts of pandering sexually-oriented matter involving a minor or impaired person, each a fourth-degree felony. However, court records do not indicate whether or not the five charges he pleaded guilty to were amended. Gamboa is scheduled to be sentenced at 9 a.m. on June 23. Background The investigation into Gamboa first began in October 2025 after the Huron County Sheriff's Office received a tip from the Internet Crimes Against Children task force regarding child pornography, according to Norwalk Municipal Court records. After further investigation, law enforcement determined that Gamboa downloaded obscene material from the internet that depicted "prepubescent children engaging in sexual activity," court documents state. Due to the investigation, a search warrant was executed at Gamboa's residence, where officers recovered several electronic devices, data storage devices, as well as "psilocybin," a chemical commonly found in certain mushrooms known for its hallucinogenic effects when ingested, court records state.
