CAPE MAY COURT HOUSE – Cape May County Prosecutor Jeffrey H. Sutherland along with Chief Christopher Leusner of the Middle Township Police Department announce the arrest of Gregory Mahley, 51, of West Deptford, on additional charges relating to manufacturing and possessing child pornography.
On Sept. 9, the Gloucester Township Police Department charged Gregory Mahley after mirrors were found in girls bathroom stalls at the Glen Landing Middle School in Gloucester Township. The Gloucester Township investigation alleged that Mahley, a commercial HVAC technician employed by Multi-Temp Mechanical, Inc., located in Westville, had secretly recorded females using the girl’s bathroom in the Middle School. During that investigation, officials say they seized numerous electronic devices from Mahley’s residence and vehicle and discovered recordings of juvenile and adult victims.

On Sept. 23, Mahley was charged with 10 counts of second-degree endangering the welfare of a child (manufacturing of child pornography) and 10 counts of third-degree endangering the welfare of a child (possession of child pornography).
Mahley will remain lodged at the Camden County Correctional Center pending court proceedings. It should be noted for the above listed charges, the victims who are now adults, have been identified and were contacted regarding this investigation.
