A Chattooga County man will be serving time in a federal prison after pleading guilty to possession of child pornography in U.S. District Court.
In January, federal agents raided the home of Kerry Steve Skinner on Maple Drive.
According to investigators they found numerous files of child pornography on Skinner’s computer hard drive.
Skinner was sentenced to seven years in prison and thirty years of probation and will not be allowed any access to the internet.
Skinner told the court that he was drinking heavily at the time that he obtained the illegal pornography and the court has also ordered him to undergo a drug and alcohol treatment program while he is in prison.
