Lafayette Man Sentenced For Downloading Hundreds Of Child Porn Images
22-year-old Trevor Lee Engle of Lafayette faces up to 20 years in prison after pleading guilty on Thursday to possessing approximately 300 images of child pornography on a cell phone.
Court documents say law enforcement agents detected the illegal images from a phone at Engle's home. A search warrant turned up the child porn, including a video of child pornography stored on the phone's Tumblr app. At least one of the images depicted a minor under the age of 12. Engle admitted to downloading the images to his phone while being questioned.
United State Attorney David C. Joseph says, in addition to the prison sentence, Engle faces five years to life of supervised release, registration as a sex offender and a $250,000 fine.
Engle is scheduled to be sentenced on December 2, 2019.
