Calling the case a "classic glimpse into the shadowy world of pedophilia," Los Angeles City Atty. James K. Hahn filed charges Thursday against a man who allegedly mailed child pornography to an undercover police officer posing as a child molester.
Dennis M. Trembly, 41, a professional musician who lives downtown, was charged with a single misdemeanor count of exhibiting to an adult matter depicting a person under age 17 engaging in sexual conduct.
Trembly is scheduled to be arraigned July 13. If convicted, he could be sentenced to up to a year in County Jail and fined $2,000.
Hahn said Trembly in February mailed a child pornography magazine called "Lollitots" to an undercover vice detective who had been corresponding with him by letter and pretending to be a pedophile. Trembly was arrested Feb. 27.
"This case is a classic glimpse into the shadowy world of pedophilia and how pedophiles operate," Hahn said.
