Williamson man pleads guilty to child pornography charge

CHARLESTON, W.Va. — A Mingo County man will be sentenced later this year on child pornography charges.

Paul Silas Jenkins, 33, of Williamson, pleaded guilty Tuesday in Federal Court to production of child pornography.

Police said Jenkins established a relationship with a minor and then made a video of the minor performing sexual acts. That video was recorded on a DVD and later found inside a computer that was returned to a Rent-A-Center in Pike County, Kentucky.

Jenkins faces up to 30 years in prison when sentenced November 20.
