A longtime Bucks County Catholic school teacher and youth sports coach was arrested and charged Wednesday with possession and distribution of child sexual abuse material.
Richard Allen Adamsky, 65, of Warminster Township, was taken into custody by federal and local law enforcement after a search warrant was executed at his home, according to Bucks County District Attorney Jennifer Schorn.
Adamsky is charged with felony possession of CSAM and felony criminal use of a communications device, Schorn said.
He is a teacher and sports coach at Nativity of Our Lord Catholic School in Warminster.
Adamsky was sent to Bucks County jail in lieu of 10% of $500,000 cash bail, set at arraignment by Magisterial District Judge Christopher E. O’Neill. A preliminary hearing is set for Aug. 4 at 2:45 p.m. before O’Neill.
The investigation was led by the FBI Child Exploitation and Human Trafficking Task Force, with assistance from the Pennsylvania Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force, which includes detectives from the Bensalem Township Police Department and the Warminster Township Police Department, Schorn said.
The investigation began on March 30, 2025, when the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children reported possible downloading or obtaining of CSAM, according to authorities.
CMEC's report indicated that an image depicting a prepubescent female posing nude with her genitals exposed was uploaded using Microsoft Bing Reverse Image Search via an IP address, detectives said.
Further investigation traced the IP address to Verizon, which provided subscriber information leading to Adamsky, police said.
During questioning, Adamsky allegedly admitted to authorities that for about four to five years, he had been searching for, downloading, and saving hundreds of images depicting CSAM to his computer.
When asked how many he saved, he replied “too many,” according to the criminal complaint.
Adamsky teaches and coaches youth consistent with the age group depicted in the illicit images allegedly found on his devices, authorities said.
The investigation is ongoing and anyone with information should contact Warminster Detective Stephen Wojciechowski at 215-672-1000.
This case is assigned for prosecution to Deputy District Attorney Monica W. Furber.
All suspects and defendants are innocent until proven guilty. This story was compiled using public court records.
