The former director of a Connecticut children’s museum has been charged on an indictment with distributing images of child sexual abuse, according to federal prosecutors.
A federal grand jury in Hartford returned an indictment on Tuesday, charging Robert Eckert, 56, of Simsbury, with distribution of child pornography. Eckert appeared before Judge Robert A. Richardson on Thursday and pleaded not guilty.
Eckert was held pending a follow-up bond hearing, scheduled for Friday.
During Thursday’s court appearance held virtually due to the ongoing pandemic prosecutors alleged that Eckert used online platforms to distribute images of child sexual abuse and to communicate with other individuals about distributing these images.
