The FBI has taken a SEPTA transit police officer into custody amidst allegations of child sexual exploitation. Brian Zenszer, a 43-year-old Warminster resident, faces charges of distributing child pornography. According to
NBC10
, Zenszer was arrested on November 6, following an investigation initiated from a tip received by the FBI in September.
An examination into Zenszer’s online activities revealed he allegedly used the messaging platform Kik to share “several videos and images” suggestive of child pornography. In response to these severe allegations, SEPTA immediately placed Zenszer on leave, pending to swiftly terminate his employment. The statement obtained by
FOX 29
from a SEPTA spokesperson emphasized the gravity of the situation, stating the allegations as “disturbing” and affirmed their commitment to cooperate with the FBI during the investigation.
Despite the charges, no current evidence links Zenszer’s alleged criminal behavior to his duties within the SEPTA Transit Police Department. SEPTA officials ensured the public that the matter is being dealt with utmost urgency, as reported by
Action News
. They further reaffirmed there have been no accusations of criminal activity connected to Zenszer’s work at the department.
As this case unfolds, legal representation for Zenszer remains conspicuously silent. Multiple attempts to reach his attorney for comments have been unsuccessful. Zenszer is scheduled to continue to directly face these charges at a detention hearing on November 12. This situation remains a developing story as the communities of Warminster and SEPTA riders at large look on, cautiously awaiting further details and the implications that may ensue.
