Mark Salling, who plays Noah ‘Puck’ Puckerman on Glee, has agreed to turn himself over to federal authorities on June 3rd in regards to child porn charges. Police were tipped off late last year by a former girlfriend that Salling was in possession of still pictures and videos of child porn. If convicted, Salling could get a maximum of 40 years in a federal prison.

Late last year Salling’s residence was searched by LAPD’s Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, where they allegedly found hundreds of indecent images of young children – although he was indicted for just three videos and one still image.
The police were reportedly tipped off by one of Salling’s ex-girlfriends and he was brought to Los Angeles’ Downtown jail.
This was not the first time last year that the actor was in trouble with the law, after he was previously sued by ex-girlfriend Roxanne Gorzela for sexual battery.
She claimed he forced her to have unprotected sex with him and then later, when she confronted him over his actions, he allegedly pushed her to the ground and caused injury to her knees.
The pair settled the case for a reported $2.7million and whilst the sexual battery case was dropped, Mark admitted to causing her to fall and injure herself through negligence.
