Florida Church Deacon Sentenced to 22 Years in Prison for Possessing and Producing Child Pornography

Florida Church Deacon Sentenced to 22 Years in Prison for Possessing and Producing Child Pornography

A Florida church deacon will serve 22 years behind bars after he was found guilty of producing child pornography.

Jonathan High, 31, has been sentenced to 22 years in federal prison for the charges of the use of a child to produce child pornography and possession of child pornography, which he pleaded guilty to last year, according to the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ).

“This sentence is yet another example of the unwavering commitment to the protection of our most vulnerable and should serve as a significant deterrent to those who would attempt to harm them,” said U.S. Attorney Jason Coody.

A tip about an account uploading child pornography coming from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) led investigators to High after they discovered he owned the account, said the DOJ.

OH Youth Ministry Volunteer Gets Life For Child Rapes

Defense attorney John Watters II read a letter from Pringle’s pastor, Jeff Calkins, who said the defendant was repentant. Calkins requested leniency for the defendant. Given the chance to speak on his own behalf, Pringle expressed regret. “I don’t want anybody to feel bad about me going to prison,” he said. “I feel like a failure. I did ask God for mercy and He has forgiven me.”
