Former Queens Council Member Dan Halloran, who was convicted in 2014 for his role in two bribery and corruption schemes and served five years in federal prison, is in trouble with the law again.
Halloran was arrested at Miami International Airport on Saturday, March 29, and charged with possessing child pornography and transporting child pornography after U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers inspected his Apple iPhone 14 Pro Max and an Apple iPad 6th Generation tablet and discovered several videos of suspected child pornography located in a hidden folder album on the phone’s photos application, according to the criminal complaint filed in the Southern District of Florida.
Halloran told officers he owned the devices and provided the passcode to unlock them. At least 35 videos showed young children performing various sex acts. One video showed a prepubescent girl disrobing and masturbating with exposed genitalia and another video showed a partially nude prepubescent girl performing oral sex on an adult man.
A CBP officer discovered on Halloran’s Apple iPhone a text conversation on Telegram, a messaging app, that indicated he had purchased child pornography after he had received different pricing packages. Halloran wrote back and asked, “What’s the delivery platform” and “What are the differences between reg. Premium, VIP?”
When asked by CBP officers how many of the videos in the hidden folder in his phone depicted child pornography, Halloran told the officers that approximately two-thirds to three-quarters of the videos depicted child pornography.
According to the criminal complaint, a total of 1,362 videos are stored in the hidden folder of a photo album on Halloran’s Apple iPhone.
The 54-year-old Halloran, who currently resides in Floral Park, was traveling home from Camaguey, Cuba, when he had a layover in Miami. He was taken into custody and booked at the Broward County Main Jail. His arraignment is scheduled for April 14.

Halloran and his brother were abused by relatives while his dad was dying. Child pornography is indeed evil. Those who recruit and film the kids should face severe penalties, no matter how cruel, including castration. But prosecuting people for owning it smacks of censorship and endangers our liberties. Sounds like Halloran really did actively and intentionally buy this stuff, but what happens when some corrupt cops plant it?
I forgot what party he represented. Oh, that's right - Halloran was a Republican.
Ohhhh Danny Boy, they love a tender white ass in prison, especially when it's a child porno perv. Butter up!
Halloran bragged his family has ruled Flushing since before the Civil War. Many Irish who would not help out in community or political matters came flocked like crazy to help elect Halloran and to this day, they dream up conspiracy theories to vindicate him. It should teach you to take Irish tales with a grain of salt. Have you seen an Irish mom scrape mold off of break, put it in a toaster and feed it to her kids? Well, they complain about the potato famine but they don't tell you they refused to burn blighted plants but instead fed it to the pigs in their basements and then used the manure for new plants. They complain how Cromwell invaded Ireland and sent the drunken street urchins off the streets of London off to America as indentured servants, and then they try to make this the equivalent of black slavery. And during the Civil War, the Irish sided with the Confederacy, and in both world wars with Germany.
How did his famous blond hair turn black?
I always find it unusual how many people who get on the wrong side of the powerful suddenly get caught with kiddie porn.
Coincidence?
Maybe I'm missing something, but why was Dan Halloran in Cuba? Tourist travel there from the US is still illegal and he isn't working for the government anymore. https://cu.usembassy.gov/services/traveling-to-cuba/
Lock him up !
The Irish always excluded Italians and other ethnicities from progressing up the church.
Halloran got Padavan to make vaccines optional.
They do teach some really unusual stuff at your KKK meetings.
Weren't the Italians too busy with organized crime and stuff?
I hear RFK Jr wants to eradicate all vaccines. Make America Sick Again.
