A Wheeling, West Virginia man has been sentenced to 120 months of incarceration for having child pornography.
Jeremy Crinkey, 44, pled guilty to one count of ‘Possession of Child Pornography – Previous Conviction’ in August 2020. Crinkey, having previously been convicted of possession of child pornography in the United States District Court for the Northern District of West Virginia in 2012, admitted to having images of child pornography in his possession in March 2020 in Ohio County.
Assistant U.S. Attorney David J. Perri prosecuted the case on behalf of the government. The U.S. Probation Office and the FBI investigated.
U.S. District Judge John Preston Bailey presided.
Crinkey’s previous conviction in 2012 came after he was first caught with child pornography in the Northern District of West Virginia. This time, he was caught with images in March 2020 in Ohio County, prompting the federal charges.
The case against Crinkey highlights the ongoing threat of child pornography in the region. As law enforcement agencies work to combat this issue, it is essential that those who engage in these activities face justice.
Crinkey’s sentencing serves as a reminder that those who commit these heinous crimes will be held accountable. His 120-month sentence sends a clear message that child pornography will not be tolerated in our community.
