A former Chicago radio disc jockey charged in 2008 with indecent solicitation of a child was arrested Wednesday at his South Loop home for possession of child pornography, police said.
Michael Wawrzyniak, 24, of the 1700 block of South Michigan Avenue, was arrested Wednesday and charged with one count of felony possession of child pornography, according to a police News Affairs statement.
Wawrzyniak is in the Central District lockup early Thursday and is scheduled to appear for a bond hearing later Thursday, police said.Wawrzyniak was a part-time/weekend radio personality known on the air as "Radio Boy," but was fired from Clear Channel Radio rhythmic Top 40 WKSC-FM (103.5) after he was charged with indecent solicitation of a child in December 2007.
Wawrzyniak was arrested Jan. 4, 2008 in west suburban Carol Stream when the 13-year-old he allegedly arranged to meet online was actually a police detective.
A DuPage County judge set bond at $150,000.
"Hopefully this investigation has prevented a child from become [sic] the victim of a heinous act in the future. This investigation shows why parents need to monitor their children's activity on the Internet," Carol Stream police Deputy Chief Kevin Orr said in a January 2008 statement.
