SENNETT — A 57-year-old Auburn man faces multiple felony charges following a child exploitation investigation that uncovered illegal weapons and child sexual abuse material, New York State Police announced Wednesday.
Randy Foster was taken into custody on March 18 after turning himself in at the State Police Auburn station.
The arrest stems from a July 24, 2024, search warrant executed at a residence on Miller Road in the town of Sennett.
