Two Men Indicted After Being Found with Images of Child Porn

Two men accused in separate cases of downloading child pornography have been indicted by the DeKalb County Grand Jury.
Winston Alexander Puckett is charged in a two count indictment for sexual exploitation of a minor and for aggravated sexual exploitation of a minor. Roy Junior Wilkey is indicted on one count of sexual exploitation of a minor.
Sheriff Patrick Ray said that on Thursday, July 13 a search warrant was executed by a DeKalb County Sheriff’s Department Detective on a Dell laptop computer belonging to Puckett.
The computer was in Puckett’s possession on June 27 when it was turned over to law enforcement. The search warrant revealed over 400 images of child pornography that had been downloaded to the computer.
The indictment against him alleges that Puckett did unlawfully and intentionally or knowingly possess material to wit: more than 100 images that depict minors engaged in sexual activity. The second count alleges that Puckett did unlawfully and knowingly promote or possess with the intent to promote, sell, distribute, transport, purchase or exchange material, that includes a minor engaged in sexual activity or simulated sexual activity that is patently offensive.
In the case against Wilkey, Smithville Police said that on June 22 they were called to check out a possible break in at a residence on Bright Hill Road. Upon arrival they found Wilkey outside the home. He was not trying to break in but had been locked out by female minors inside the residence that he had been babysitting. One of the girls alleged that Wilkey had taken a picture of her while she was either in or coming out of the shower. Officers asked Wilkey for consent to look at his cell phone. He voluntarily turned it over to them. While no pictures were found of the children he was babysitting they did find images of child pornography that he had downloaded from the Internet. He was subsequently charged in the case.
The indictment against Wilkey alleges that on June 22, he did unlawfully and intentionally or knowingly possess material to-wit: more than 50 images that depict minors engaged in sexual activity.
Both Puckett and Wilkey will be arraigned in DeKalb County Criminal Court on December 12.
