A federal jury found Logan Roy McCauley, 25, of Hamilton, Virginia, guilty Friday of producing child pornography.<\/p>\n
According to court records and evidence presented at trial, in November 2017, McCauley drove to West Virginia, picked up a minor he had met online, and drove the minor to his residence in Hamilton. Within hours of arriving, McCauley engaged in sexual intercourse with the minor for purposes of using a smartphone to record a portion of the sexual encounter. Soon after creating the video, McCauley sent an online message to another person admitting he had made the video that morning. The day after McCauley created the video, law enforcement arrived at McCauley\u2019s residence. At this time, McCauley told law enforcement about the video, which was still on McCauley\u2019s smart phone.<\/p>\n
McCauley faces a maximum sentence of 30 years in prison and is subject to a 15-year mandatory minimum sentence. He will be sentenced on April 26, 2019 before Senior U.S. District Court Judge Ellis.<\/p>\n
The case was investigated by the FBI and the Loudoun County Sheriff\u2019s Office. It was prosecuted by Trial Attorney Gwendelynn Bills of the Criminal Division\u2019s Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section and Assistant U.S. Attorneys Alexander Berrang and Jay Prabhu of the Eastern District of Virginia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
