Christopher Collins, a 42-year-old inmate at FCI-Marion prison in Illinois, has been sentenced to an additional 224 months in prison for producing hand-drawn child sexual abuse material. Collins, also known as “Beetlejuice”, pleaded guilty to two counts of Production of Obscene Visual Representations of the Sexual Abuse of Children and one count of Possession of Obscene Visual Representations of the Sexual Abuse of Children. The disturbing drawings, created while Collins was incarcerated, depicted adults sexually assaulting children aged 6 to 12.
In March 2025, a corrections officer at FCI-Marion discovered 11 hand-drawn images that Collins had created, which led to the investigation and subsequent charges. Collins has a history of child sex abuse offenses, with prior convictions in 2008 and 2019 for possession and receipt of child pornography.
The sentence will run consecutively to Collins’ existing 240-month sentence, which he is currently serving at FCI-Marion. The FBI and the US Attorney’s Office are committed to identifying and disrupting all forms of child exploitation, including those that occur within prison walls.
According to US Attorney Steven D. Weinhoeft, Collins is a serial child sex offender who continues to produce images of his grotesque fantasies, and the goal is to add as much prison time as possible to his sentence to ensure he never has access to children in the community again.
