CONCORD - A Concord man pleaded guilty today in federal court to a one-count indictment charging him with possession of child sexual abuse material (CSAM), U.S. Attorney Erin Creegan announces. David Dolloff, age 50, was indicted by a federal grand jury in January 2026.
According to court documents, in July 2025, federal officials began investigating Dolloff after learning he had subscribed to a "Netflix-style" website dedicated to streaming CSAM over the darknet. Local authorities then searched Dolloff's home last August and found a thumb drive containing nearly 500 files depicting CSAM. Also saved on that thumb drive was a digital business card with Dolloff's picture and a document listing his name. Dolloff was previously convicted in Hillsborough County Superior Court for possession of CSAM in 2015.
The charging statutes provide a minimum term of imprisonment of 10 years for possession of CSAM. Sentences are imposed by a federal district court judge based upon the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and statutes that govern the determination of a sentence in a criminal case.
This investigation was led by the Department of Homeland Security's Homeland Security Investigations, with valuable assistance from the Concord Police Department. Assistant U.S. Attorney Mike Shannon is prosecuting the case.
This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse, launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice. Led by the U.S. Attorneys' Offices and the DOJ's Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section, Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state, and local resources to locate, apprehend, and prosecute individuals who exploit children, as well as identify and rescue victims.
