MILWAUKEE — A Milwaukee man was charged with five counts of child pornography possession Monday after an investigation for burglary led to the discovery of multiple images of child porn in his east side apartment.

Ryan McKenna, 31, was being investigated in connection with a burglary at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee when a search warrant was issued. That warrant led to the confiscation of his computer which was found to have various images of children performing sexual acts.

If convicted of the five counts, McKenna could face 125 years in prison and be charged $500,000 in fines.

McKenna is due back in court Oct. 8.
