Prosecutors: Sexual Predator Had Child Pornography at His North Chicago Home

Authorities found child pornography at the north suburban home of a convicted sexual predator Friday morning.

It was found in a search of John Francis Rambert’s home in the 3200 block of Stratford Court in North Chicago, according to the Lake County state’s attorney’s office and Illinois State Police.

The 64-year-old man was charged with three felony counts of child pornography possession and faces between four and 15 years in prison if convicted, prosecutors said.

In 2000, he was charged and later convicted of sexually abusing a 13-year-old victim in DuPage County, authorities said.

Rambert’s bond hearing was scheduled for Saturday.

He joins men from Beach Park and Libertyville as the third person charged with possessing child pornography in Lake County in the last month. Men from South Holland and Yorkville have also been charged in that time.
