Xenia man sent to prison for child porn possession
DAYTON — A Xenia man whose laptop computer held more than 800 images of child pornography was sentenced Friday to 78 months in federal prison.
Kenneth Brewer, 68, pleaded guilty May 9 to one count of child pornography. He was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Thomas M. Rose.
FBI agents contacted and questioned Brewer at his Xenia residence in September 2008. Brewer admitted to having images of nude children on his laptop, according to the statement of facts.
A forensic analysis of Brewer’s laptop computer revealed more than 800 images of child pornography, according to the statement of facts.
Brewer’s laptop and peripheral computer equipment and devices were forfeited as part of his plea agreement, according to Carter M. Stewart, U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Ohio.
This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative designed to protect children from exploitation and abuse. Led by the U.S. Attorneys Offices, Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state and local resources to better locate, apprehend and prosecute individuals who exploit children.
