One of them is Jeremy Algarin, 30, of Berlin Borough, who was a paramedic at the time of his arrest. Investigators said they found child sexual abuse material on his Discord account and phone.
He was charged on August 6 with distribution and possession of of child sexual abuse material.
"Totally shocked. (He) Looks out for everybody on the street. Nicest guy in the world," said one of his neighbors.
"He hangs out with the kids, with us, great guy, hard working," said another neighbor, Rachel Pearce. "It's just a shock to hear what he did and endanger himself as well as the kids."
Some neighbors saw police arrest Algarin at his home on August 6. That same day, the New Jersey Office of Emergency Medical Services was notified.
Documents show Algarin has been an EMT since 2013 and a paramedic since 2021. Due to the allegations, both licenses were immediately suspended by the Department of Health.
In a letter to Algarin, the Department said, "The above alleged actions demonstrate not only poor judgment and a lack of trustworthiness, but also pose a threat to vulnerable patients, namely children."
Algarin's most recent employer, Virtua Health, said in a statement, "We are aware of the charges brought against Mr. Algarin. While we do not comment on personnel decisions we can share that he is no longer employed with our organization."
The prosecutor's office said Algarin's pre-indictment conference is scheduled for Oct. 1.
