Bailey Roy pleaded guilty to two counts of possessing child pornography.
“The juvenile court disposition was aimed at getting the defendant sex offender treatment before the Commonwealth took a position on what would be the appropriate sentence for the child pornography indictments,” Quinn’s announcement read. “After approximately 12 months of treatment it was learned that the defendant had created and hid a cache of approximately 10 handmade child pornographic illustrative booklets evoking themes of control, domination, kidnapping and rape of female children. It became apparent that this defendant was not engaged in a significant part of his treatment and continued to engage in child pornography.”
