NEW ORLEANS (AP) - A 24-year-old New Orleans man has pleaded guilty to four counts of producing child pornography, one count of distributing child pornography and one count of receiving child pornography.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office in New Orleans says Christopher M. Schwab entered the plea Wednesday.
Prosecutors said the charges of producing child porn involve four victims.
Schwab was arrested last August by federal agents who determined that he was responsible for sending images depicting the sexual exploitation of children. Schwab has been in custody since his arrest.
Production of child pornography carries a maximum sentence of 30 years. Distribution and receipt of child pornography carry up to 20 years.
Schwab’s sentencing is set for June 11.
