Local Man Charged with Child Porn Possession
MADISON, WIS. – Timothy M. O’Shea, United States Attorney for the Western District of Wisconsin, announced that Kelly M. Schultz, 45, of Antigo, Wisconsin, pleaded guilty today in federal district court in Madison to possessing child pornography and was immediately remanded into custody.
The charge against Schultz was the result of an investigation conducted by the Wisconsin Division of Criminal Investigation, Port Edwards, Markesan, Everest Metro, and Antigo Police Departments, and Green Lake County Sheriff’s Office. The Langlade County District Attorney’s office also assisted.
Schultz was charged with possessing child pornography, specifically with knowingly possessing materials that contained images of minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct.
In March 2017, law enforcement officers executed a search warrant at Schultz’s home and seized approximately 150 CDs and DVDs. During the analysis of these items, agents located numerous images depicting minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct.
U.S. District Judge James D. Peterson scheduled sentencing for November 18. The plea agreement calls for the defendant to be sentenced to 10 years in prison to be followed by 20 years of supervised release.
Schultz’s guilty plea and potential sentence mark a significant milestone in the case. The investigation and prosecution of child pornography cases continue to be a priority for law enforcement agencies across the state.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Elizabeth Altman is prosecuting the case. The Western District of Wisconsin continues to work tirelessly to protect the community from child predators.
