SHELBY TOWNSHIP (WWJ) -- A former Macomb County Public Relations Representative was charged with possessing child pornography on Monday.

Philip Frame, 61, was formally arraigned in District Court in Shelby Township on five counts of possession of child sexually abusive material and one count of using a computer to commit a crime.

After receiving a tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, detectives found pornographic images of children both printed and electronic in Frame's home. Marijuana was also located during the search.

Frame's home had also been searched by the Department of Homeland Security in September of 2015 after a separate investigation into child pornography.

Out on bond, the former public relations representative for the Macomb County Board of Commissioners and Cobo Center is due back in court on January 19.
